Re: Humax YouView any good?
Menu speed isn't great to be honest on my box. In terms of ease of use though the historic EPG with links straight to "on demand" programmes works well. Series link works but isn't as well policed as on Sky (i.e. repeats are often recorded as part of the sequence). No fault of the box though, that's just poor management by the channels!
7-8mb is more than enough - I'm getting around 3mb and iplayer once buffered up runs fine with quality good enough for a large TV (not HD but good bitrate SD). HD just about works as long as you don't do anything else on the web!
Just to add - my Youview is an older model and they do claim the new boxes are quicker.
Re: Humax YouView any good?
Thanks for the feedback. Usually the newer the box the faster they'll be. Hopefully someone can confirm this before I commit. It's quite annoying having lag on channel changing or waiting for a menu to pop up
Re: Humax YouView any good?
