    Same problem as lots of others, occasional black screen on ITV,ch 4 and ch5, only since 7th Feb. Only got box last month, but it’s been perfect up until last Wednesday. Will try using HD stations instead and hopefully will get an update

    The problem seems to be restricted to one of the broadcast multiplexes and the channels that it carries.

    So I would have thought this was a broadcast issue rather than a Humax issue, I could of course be wrong.

    Humax have not issued a firmware/ software update for the Aura since August 2021, even though there are

    many little issues that should have been addressed, so I would not hold out for an ‘update’ from Humax anytime

    never mind soon.

    Humax have identified the Blank Screen issues with Aura and are sending out an Over The Air Update to selected Aura Users. This is a test update and once confirmed that the Update is functioning correctly then all Aura Users will receive the update.

    As mentioned in this other thread Humax are looking into a possible fix.

    Until then HD channels work fine.

    That’s a reassuring post regarding a pending fix. I changed all my HDMI leads, checked all aerial connections, changed my TV HDMI input port and re-booted numerous times. I’ll try the HD channels to see if it happens with them.

    Yeah I find that highly unlikely.

    I wouldn’t hold your breath.

    Usual Humax support BS. Was told when I bought mine and had issues a firmware update was imminent, that was 2 years ago, still have the issues and waiting for the fixes.

    The Aura has not had an update in nearly 3 years, I’d be surprised if they still have any staff to work on it.

    blinking has begun for me too, on itv3, since 6.2.24, as well as fastplay not working properly. it seems the 2 issues are the same problem. anyone found a solution?
