About this deal

When creating a child profile in BBC iPlayer, the T3 would reboot when entering the month in their date of birth (resolved in v2.01). Once you have everything connected, both Freeview and Freeview Play are free to watch, without any monthly subscriptions (though you would still need to pay the TV Licence in most cases). Following (normally temporary) EDID failure during the HDMI handshake the T3’s Audio Output would change to Auto. This primarily affected Audio Receivers and Soundbars. When first turning on the T3-R from standby and going to the Recordings menu the recordings sections could appear empty until exiting and re-entering the menu.

The Aura boasts four built-in tuners, allowing you to record up to four channels simultaneously while watching a fifth live channel. This impressive capability ensures that you never have to choose between your favourite programs, even if they are airing at the same time. Win: The DTR-T4000 comes with two built-in tuners, enabling you to simultaneously record one channel while watching another live channel. This flexibility ensures that you don't miss out on any of your preferred shows, even if they are airing simultaneously. The T3•R can also be manually set to a resolution in the Picture & Sound section of the Settings menu. This could cause an issue if you set a resolution (e.g. 2160p), then move the T3•R to another TV that doesn't support that resolution.

Manhattan T4-R Therefore, you need to go to the Freeview Play section of the Aura (either via the dedicated remote button, or go to Channel 100) – and run the ITVX app over there – as that’s a different app (of sorts), which does work at this point. Just remember that recording – just like watching live shows – depends on your Freeview reception. So if you have bad reception, or if someone accidentally moved the indoor aerial, you might find out later that you have a garbled recording. So that leaves YouTube. If you search for “4K” on YouTube, you’ll find some interesting content – mostly nature clips and 4K movie trailers. It all looks stunning, but it’s mainly a screensaver replacement and not content you’re actually going to sit down and watch.

Win: The Manhattan T2-R 500 comes with additional features that enhance your TV viewing experience. It supports on-demand services like BBC iPlayer and ITV Hub, allowing you to access a wide range of content. The device also supports catch-up TV, giving you the flexibility to watch shows you missed. There’s also a variable lip-sync delay – up to 250 seconds – in case you’re suffering with sync issues because of a soundbar. You should buy it if… However, the ongoing delays have undoubtedly frustrated those keen on upgrading their Freeview experience, especially given the promising features of the T4 and T4-R models.
