This is a great box with a variety of uses. It can be used as a standalone freeview box on your tv, or, connected to the internet for many more programs, and catch up tv. Then you have the recorder facility with 500gb hard drive storage.... an excellent choice.

I am on my 4th box. The previous 3 all had the same problem and that's that they all started going wrong.ive various prices for them raging from £120 down to£40. The shortest time I have had one before it went wrong is 4 months and the longest is 2 years. They start going wrong by getting wavy lines. They gradually go worse until it's too bad to watch. Why do I keep on buying them, because the bloody wife says it's the only one that she knows how to work. I've had other human and Manhattan but they are too complicated for her.

Great box. Really easy to set up with an Ethernet connection to your router. It cannot be used wirelessly. So many cool features. It can record 2 programmes at the same time. The Youview app for remote recording was recently disabled which was disappointing. However BT are allowing non-BT customers to use their free app to do this.

Much better than the Freeview Box i had. It also supports Surround Sound which is great. It's pretty small and compact and doesn't take up much room and pretty fast to power up.

You can get all Catchup Services from the internet, plus Netflix & NowTV with subscription. It has a large recording capacity of 1 TB unlike other recorders of 320 GB or 500 GB on some recorders. The only reason I gave it a 4 star rating is because of the sound level. I connect my recorder box to a Panasonic sound system, which when it connects to just Freeview, I have to increase the volume quite a lot, but when it connects to Catchup on the internet, it gets louder and is of an expected normal sound level. I have an older BT Youview recording box too and that one does not have this problem. Otherwise this box and its picture quality are superb.
