InactiveTitle says ch4, body text says chrome. If it is opening on chrome, you possibly have a device (phone, tablet, pc, etc) that thinks it’s still casting to the Aura box. The Aura box will automatically switch to chrome when something wants to cast to it.

I think the OP is confusing the Google Chrome Web Server with the Aura built in Chromecast. It’s likely he is looking at the Chromecast screen saver.
Pressing any key like LIVE TV should go back to the live tuners. Normally the last used channel will be used. Simple to change to any other.
Eg if say Channel 4-HD was recorded last before the box went into full sby. That should be the live channel viewed.
If you open a Chrome browswer on say a PC. Drag a video file into a Chrome tab. It shouls start playing. Click on the casting tab and select the Humax 4K-GTR item. The video should appear on the connected TV.

InactiveBefore getting too involved with Chrome, it would be worth Muskie478 clarifying what was meant. “Chrome” could just have been an autocorrect error when starting to type “Ch4” (or vice versa in the title).

InactiveYou all mention Chrome which is confusing. It is live tv on channel 4 I’ve looked for settings but can’t find any that would indicate anything towards a channel setting
I don’t have any favourite channels set.
I switch on in morning and it’s always ch 4 live TV. Most annoying

You all mention Chrome which is confusing.
The reason that the replies to your original post mention “Chrome” is that your very first post stated that “the aura it opens on chrome”.

InactiveYou are absolutely correct It is a auto text error. I wrote it open on ch4 but it auto corrected to chrome.
My error for not checking the spelling.
I think if I can delete the post and repost it would be better
Apologies
Admin edit: first post edited to reflect ch4 not chrome.

InactiveLooking at the manual, I cannot see it, but I wonder if the Aura has an equivalent to the 5000T’s Power Timer, which could cause this.

InactiveWhat’s the power timer?

InactiveOn the 5000T, the power timer allows you to switch the box on and off at two specific times and on a specific channel, but I don’t know if your box has any similar feature.
We use it to repopulate the 5000T EPG for about 20 minutes each morning.
