It would be nice to see the Aura match many of the features of the ageing Fox T-2. After 2 weeks of ownership I’m missing many of these features.

Can you specify which features in particular you would like to see?

The ability to watch and set recordings from outside home network. For instance, I’m waiting elsewhere such as a hospital bed and want to watch a recorded episode.
You can set recordings remotely with the app. Watching remotely can be done using the Web control interface if you set up port forwarding correctly.
Web Control on 8080 is for testing and techs, not general use. It should be available from the main GUI. As it is, it’s buggered. Web Control works over VPN.
Sort out Bluetooth, wont connect to headphones or speakers.

I have just successfully connected a pair of Bluetooth headphones to my aura, so am not sure what your issue is?
Edit: I have also connected a Bluetooth speaker without any issues.

See my previous posts in this thread.
I can easily connect to a Bluetooth receiver (avantree Oasis Plus) and plug normal headphones in. However if someone is partially deaf bluetooth audio out to headphones mutes the box hdmi audio out. So you can’t all listen in the same room and give a bit of a boost to someone with hearing issues. Can this be an option – retain HDMI audio out and feed bluetooth at the same time. The receiver can accept audio from optical and analogue but of course that’s no help with the Aura.
Well I must have a knackered box then because it refuses to connect to an Anker speaker or 2 other sets of bluetooth headphones. All connect without an issue to my LG tv.

How are you attempting to connect, and at what stage does it fail?
Are there any messages on screen?

I will try it again shortly & post back what happens.
1. Jump to date. If you open the Guide at, say, 7:30pm and then jump a few days ahead, the schedule for that day begins at 7:30pm. I would like the schedule for that day to open at 12:00am (at the beginning of the day). If, while in the schedule for some day ahead, you scroll to a time earlier than 7:30pm and then jump back to “today”, the schedule (at least on my machine) is blank. What should happen when you jump back to “today”, is that it should jump back to “now” (e.g. 7:30pm).
2. Grid style guide. I dislike the grid style guide and would like to have the option to choose a list style guide where the schedule is shown channel by channel in a list (like looking at a channel in the Radio Times). This was a favourite of mine in the Topfield.
3. Speaking of lists…At least the Aura offers a filter, unlike, as far as I can see, other PVRs, but using it to compile a schedule is pretty tedious (involving scrolling up and down and back and forth) even though I have a very small selection of channels. The “find” module in the HDR-2000T offers a much better method of filtering. Using it to find news and factual programmes, say, presents you with a list of just such programmes in date and time order making it easy to shift through to select anything which looks interesting.

1. I think that the current behaviour is more logical, as you may be looking to see what programmes are on at a certain time, i.e. peak viewing hours each day, and it would be very annoying if you had to scroll through most of the day to get to the time you are interested in.
Quote:If, while in the schedule for some day ahead, you scroll to a time earlier than 7:30pm and then jump back to “today”, the schedule (at least on my machine) is blank. What should happen when you jump back to “today”, is that it should jump back to “now” (e.g. 7:30pm).I can’t reproduce this, my box returns to “now”, and is fully populated.
2. I like the Grid style guide, but the option to chose between grid or list would be okay, and probably feasible as the option already exists in the backwards EPG.

I would also like to see a list of programmes when ‘filtering’ by genre.
