My new Humax box automatically turns on my tv on start up, but it doesn’t turn it off again. How can I correct this, it would be good to lose the tv remote.

Start by telling us which model of Humax box you have purchased.
Someone might be along shortly to correct me, but I don’t think there is any way of getting any Humax to turn a TV off when the unit itself is turned off. Auto-turn on is a function of the TV not of the Humax, and I’ll be surprised if there are any TV models that turn themselves off when a signal input is lost.
A Harmony universal remote control will do what you want. It’s based on activities. For instance a watch 1100S activity will turn on all the kit you need and select the appropriate inputs at the touch of a single button. If you press the off button it will turn everything off. If you select a new activity it will turn off anything not used by that activity and turn on kit that the new activity uses.
