Is it possible to play recordings made on one Aura via network on a second Aura? The scenario would have one Aura attached to TV downstairs and second Aura attached to TV upstairs with both Aura connected using wired ethernet to the same network. Believe this was possible with the FVP 4000T & FVP 5000T for both SD and HD recordings. I see at least one person here has mentioned they have 2 Auras so was hoping someone had some experience.
Having just got a second Aura. It is possible to view recordings made on one Aura on another. I downloaded VLC from the Android site via the Aura and turning on file share using FTP. It seems to be in HD but you can’t seem to come back to the same stop point if you quit out.
I can view my recordings from the Aura downstairs in the bedroom using a Firestick. It’s not something I do often, but useful in the odd occasion as I have an FVP4000 which I use for my recording needs for upstairs viewing.
Kodi is installed on the Firestick and it plays SD recordings without issue and I can fast forward/jump through adverts. I have been able to play HD recording’s too, but if I try and fast forward it jumps to the beginning of the recording.
That’s interesting you could view Humax recordings on a Firestick (not strictly on topic
). I couldn’t get Kodi on the Aura in the living room to see my Aura upstairs on my network. I wanted to see recordings on the Aura downstairs in the living room. VLC for me could easily see the network and not be too difficult to use.
It’s a shame there isn’t a more integrated and fully functional media player built in to the Aura like it was on my old 4000T.
