InactiveLooks good. I like the ‘zapping’ order mod.
I don’t understand what the OK key behaviour affects.

InactiveMy freeview catchup apps have stopped working, when launched from the Apps menu or the Home menu. I get an error that says Unable to connect properly, sorry. Error code: FVP-300.
They work OK when launched from the Freeview Play menu.

I had this, and I’m not on the beta software! Just restarted the box and it was fine!
In fact I take that back!! they only work from the Freeview play menu! must have started it from there after the box restarted

ModeratorCheck to see if your apps have latest updates to start with.
Mine have 12 March as latest.
I have already highlighted this issue to Humax.

I have updated to latest Beta and have noticed BBC iplayer my5 etc have the fvp-30p error if loaded from the home screen, but if I start an app from the freeview play guide it plays okay.
At the same time as the new beta software updated, all the on demand apps updated in Google play.
I tried uninstalling update an restarting to no avail.

I have the same problem iplayer loads from freeview play but 300 error from apps menue.

ModeratorTo be clear…
This update is not the cause of catch up player problems.
Same symptoms experienced on unit with last public release software version.

InactiveAll of the main catch-up apps are still working for me via apps button, android home screen, and backwards EPG.

InactiveYou are right Barry iPlayer loading from apps menu was intermittent to say the least. I normally had to pull the power then it would load only difference now is that the 300 error pops up.

InactiveWhen and how is the software updated on the Aura? This thread refers to “beta” software releases, which i assume is not for general release, only testing.
(My box, which I only got a week or so ago, shows last software update was January 29th 2921, firmware version 9.14)

ModeratorYou have the latest public release software. Updates are delivered via your internet connection.
For info:
We originally had a very very small group (single figures) of dedicated Beta testers whose work was, and still is hidden. They get to preview a Beta, and if issues found fixes are applied before it is released to the wider group.
Humax asked if we could to extend the group, and carry out tests ‘in the open’ so that is where we are at today, and the reason for this and previous threads.

ParticipantAll my catch up apps however accessed working for me also. I had 14 app updates today. Only catch up player updated was STV Player. Plex was updated so if any of you use plex check for the update.

InactiveGood to see the Beta testing program moving forward with some great enchantments and fixes. Thank you Humax.
Some notes:
I have had no momentary (1 to 3 second) pixilation/pause issues whatsoever in recordings/live tv/chase play since disconnecting hardwired LAN and changing to Wi-Fi. This was my main issue with the Aura as I never had it on the previous 5000T (same LAN cable and UHF connection). I can only draw a conclusion that the hardwired LAN handling is somehow briefly interfering with the UHF signal processing. I did catch one of these on a live programme and there was a very brief No Signal message and no picture/sound, on checking the rewind buffer it showed as the brief pixilation/pause.
OSD background opacity control option is still not fully working. If the control is set to 100% the setting is ignored in the Recordings Screen when in an episodes series folder, and when viewing a multiple episode programme in the Schedule. It looks as if it reverts to 90% which is the default.
The schedule screen still does not update the title of series programmes when they change their name. I still have The ‘Christmas’ Misadventures of Romesh Ranganathan in the top schedule list which is actually The Misadventures of Romesh Ranganathan underneath when you OK on it.
Very minor niggle grammatical error when playing/pausing recordings. Information top left should say either Recorded at 13:45 Tue 02 Feb OR Recorded on Tue 02 Feb 13:45. Grammatically ‘on’ should not be used as a preposition before a time.
