Humax YouView Remote Control for DTR-T1000/DTR-1010

We bought this to replace our remote which was no longer working. So far this is working really well, just like our previous one did when it was brand new.

Great remote, clear easy to use buttons good value for money and compatible with the humax digibox

After a disaster with a different replacement Humax remote, I tried this one. Good news, it works. Bad news, it isn't a genuine Humax remote, and it has different programming instructions to get it to work with the TV as well as the YouView box. My particular remote came with no cover for the battery compartment. I didn't bother to seek a replacement, because I still had the really bad remote that I tried first. Fortunately, the cover from that one fitted this one. This is ironic, as the genuine Humax remote has the battery cover attached with a flexible link, so it can't be lost. This remote comes with instructions for coding it to the TV. It uses a 4 digit TV code instead of the original Humax 3 digit code, and the button sequence for programming is different, but it works. The build quality is not as good as the original Humax control, but better than the poor one I tried first. The buttons don't get stuck in when you press them. Since the original Humax remote had stopped working properly on some buttons, this is an improvement, and I now have full control of my YouView box again, so for me, it is worth the money. As far as I can tell, you can't get a genuine Humax remote any more, except with the YouView box itself.

Great product and great delivery. I am a very happy customer. Many thanks.

Bought one of these to replace an original 18 mths ago. Worked perfectly very happy with it until couple of weeks ago some liquid spilled on it and may have go into it. It gradually got more and more temperamental. Coincidence or not, I just ordered another and peace and harmony is restored.

Fast delivery, identical to my original and works perfectly

When our Humax remote control failed (after a long time) I purchased a cheaper version. Error. The buttons were harder to push and within a few months it was playing up intermittently. This time I paid the extra and bought the Humax version - wonderful! Only needs a light touch and works brilliantly.

This is the 3rd one of these that I've bought recently. I have 2 Humax boxes where the original remote controls stopped working properly. I bought the first about 4 months ago, and as it seemed to work OK, I bought a 2nd one. The 2nd one was DOA, so returned it to Amazon and bought the 3rd. It worked for 4 weeks, then failed also. And now the first one has failed too - I still have a flaky original remote which mostly works, so I know it's not the recorder. Going to order 2 genuine remotes direct from Humax - might be more expensive, but there's a good chance they might actually do the job. Best to avoid these cheap imports!
