    I agree with the comments re Humax. Great customer service. And where would we be without this forum? It’s almost an unrecognisable box features-wise compared to when first launched.

    Regarding DLNA, I was watching a recording on my phone when it suddenly stopped at 11pm when my Aura is scheduled to go into deep standby. This would not happen if I was watching a recording (or live tv) on the Aura itself as it would wait for me putting it in (normal) standby before going into deep standby. I will try and check this again some time. I do not know if this is the intended behaviour.

    From the programmer:

    At the moment the implementation only checks if there is transcoding on-going before entering deep standby.

    They will check and see if changes can be made.

    Just thought it’s worth saying a big thanks to Barry & the team at Humax for their continuing efforts in addressing issues discovered with the Aura in these continuing Beta updates & listening to user requests for potential improvements along the way.

    It’s much appreciated :-)

    I’ve still got some voice commands from Google home not working. “Turn off the living room TV” no longer works. It used to before the last firmware update.

    Pause and play voice commands still work.

    I use a Harmony remote so have HDMI-CEC switched off, but enabling it then saying ‘OK Google, switch off Android TV’ switched off my Sony TV. Have you checked the HDMI-CEC setting?

    Yes checked settings. If I turn the Aura off by either its remote or top button it then turns off the TV as expected. It just does not seem to work with voice commands any more.

    The Aura remote goes back to Infra red mode to preserve the batteries. Try pairing the remote using OK plus i

    Try FVP – settings – Freeview Play Preference

    Under Remote Control What does TV pairing say ?

    Don’t know if this would be classed as a bug. When watching a recording and then pressing stop, the program just watched is not highlighted in red but the number 1 top program in the list is. If you want to continue watching you then than to scroll down and select the program again. In addition if you do stop a program and then decide to delete it you may not notice that the program just watched isn’t highlighted and delete the top program by mistake even though it does pop up to confirm before you delete you might not read it and just assume it’s the same program that you just watched.

    Sorry if this has been covered already but watching ITV3 and keeps black screening every few minutes. Changing channel or power off brings it back but then it black screens again.

    Cheers

    Seems to be on several channels -same issue on ITV2

    UPDATE – A hard reset (plug pull) didn’t fix but have just used the restart option in the menu and seems ok so far.

    Just wondered if the default landing episode on playback has been corrected to land on the oldest multi episode recording, instead of the latest. This also happens when returning to a non fully played episode in a multi episode folder. It lands on the latest, instead of the partial played episode ready to resume.

    Changed in the next release which will be available in a few hours minutes, will close this and open new thread with release note when the time comes.

    Thanks to all that passed comments on this release.
