I got a BT Youview DTRT2100 through bt when I was with them on the £5 package. I since have cancelled that and kept the box. Does this mean I won't get the recent update that I'm seeing a lot about and if so when?
You will get it. Youview are having a policy of no box left behind. BT are in the process of rolling next gen software out now. Your box will stay on youview classic until its your turn as they do so many boxes at a time. If you got the box as part of a BT TV contract and continued to use it when you cancelled BT TV you will be still on bts update schedule no matter what ISP you use
Updates are available, you can update the software and apps by going into settings. you have the choice of retaining recordings too. If you click on the update it will tell you if you have the latest ones.

Not quite.
It will tell you if the latest update is ready to be rolled out to you. It will not tell you whether what you have is the latest update or not.
And your comment about retaining recordings or not is just peculiar; no update ever offers this choice, and no update ever deletes your recordings anyway.

Hi Thanks for speedy response - I read on the forum somewhere that the roll out is complete ? Is this incorrect? Thanks

No, BTs roll out continues... Its all the retail boxes that have completed.
I'm now happy with the disagree icon, because its gone.

If you bought it from a reputable retailer, and not at a suspiciously good price from eBay or Amazon, and it doesn't say BT on it, but it does say Humax when it boots up, then it's retail.
There are retail BT-badged boxes out there, and retail Huaweis, but these have their own rollout schedules.
