Programmes deleted and emptied from the Trash could not be re-recorded and any repeats were indicated as already recorded. The TV Guide now indicates in the info area when a programme is running late, starting late or has started early. An issue that could stop programmes being set to record that are on now on a service that does not broadcast 24/7 (e.g. BBC FOUR). The recording could only be scheduled after changing to a service on the same multiplex.You can record two programs but you cannot watch a live third at the same time. For the money it is a very good straight forward no nonsense PVR. Very responsive remote no delay button pushes. Nice user interface. Two year warrantee. Ensure your aerial is connected to your T2•R and an HDMI or AV cable is connected from your T1 to your TV. When trying to set a recording that clashed with two other recordings, one of which was the second part of a split event, the system would fail to present the Recording Clash prompt and the event could not be booked. The system can now be restarted in the System Settings menu and by pressing: Red - 0 - Red - Standby. Manhattan menus can now be used when using interactive services with video, like 211 Ketchup TV and 265 Planet Knowledge. Previously you needed to exit the service or change the channel first.

It was not possible to set an instant recording on a channel immediately after using an MHEG red button service on that channel. It was still possible to record from the Channel Banner or TV Guide. Automatic trash removal now takes place in Standby. Previously this would take place after boot-up and could slow the system down if there was a lot to remove.

When a major retune event (e.g. addition of a new multiplex) is signalled by the broadcasters, the T2-R will display a prompt to retune. This can be done straight away or postponed until convenient. Such retune events normally occur no more than once or twice a year. Record 2 programmes at once. Need to record more? The T2-R will suggest alternative broadcasts to make it work

During initial setup the Confirm Your PIN step has been updated to make it clearer you need to re-enter your PIN.

It now takes place only once overnight.In addition to Smart Retune, Full Retune can now be chosen from the Tuning section of Settings. The Full Retune completely removes the existing channel database and is necessary when the T2-R is moved to a new region (e.g. when moving home). The remote is laid out clearly with reasonably sized buttons that have a reassuring feel to them when pressed. Designed in the UK by Manhattan for an exceptional Freeview HD experience. The compact T2-R fits into any room and puts you in control of your TV.
