ModeratorSome comments from programmer I have been asked to post:
• Dolby TrueHD passthrough
At the moment it is not supported by SoC(System-On-Chip) we used for Aura.
We have been confirmed that Dolby TrueHD will be supported in next Android version.
• Dolby Atmos
There are two types of Dolby Atmos : Atmos with DDP & Atmos with Dolby TrueHD.
*) Atmos with DDP : Currently supported. e.g.) Prime video Jack Ryan.
But Disney+ App supports Atmos only with Android 10(Q).
*) Atmos with Dolby TrueHD : will be supported from next Android version.
The next android major update is scheduled for later this year.

Quote:• Improve series recording limit handling – If an episode is already booked by series schedule, Aura will notify to users in detail information and not make a new series schedule. Limit change to 15.ITV3 are showing the Carry On films at Easter as a series with more than 15 films (and some repeated). If you press record for a film with no record icon (and not a repeat) then the record icon appears and it is added to the schedule so I have 17 films in the schedule. Information is shown in the detail information, but I still think it would be better to have no limit.
Limit increased in next beta to 24

Yet again, the Aura is being totally unreliable for TSR recording. Again tonight, paused The Circle on C4HD for a couple of minutes, pressed play and the darn box jumped into the previous program, 24hr in A&E !!!
Damn annoying, but if there is a solution or settings tweak out there, it would be nice to know.
If you want to test the latest beta release to see if that improves matters then PM (private message) the serial number of your unit, which can be found in Settings, Device preferences, About, Status.
Hi, tried PM’ing you. Says your mailbox is full.
I’m just to popular

Sadly, we have decided to part company with our Aura, purchased on 4th March. Frankly, not fit for purpose. Pixilation in the middle of programmes and screen freezing, putting sub-titles out of sync totally spoiling enjoyment. We live in a strong TV signal area and never had a problem with pixilation on other systems (namely Huawei Freeview). It’s not as if this problem occurs during multiple recordings, this happens when no other tuner is being used.
If any member has a solution to the problem, I will be pleased to hear of it, else a phone call to Humax today

Also, with the new option to save settings, is it clear to say export or import as the settings are saved on the hdd? They are never exported from or imported to the box.
I think the description is fine. You can send your settings and schedule to a relative if you are so inclined

Little do you know how many versions there has been in the last Hour. One of the very small group of original testers found an issue which has been corrected.
The new Export/Import option of schedules, settings, favs can be found in Freeview Play Preferences.
Barry
ModeratorNew version will be available later, will then close this thread and open a new one.
