    Hello
    On a few random mornings we have found that the Sony TV has turned on by itself. When this happens, the Aura box is running too, so I assume that the Humax box has turned itself on, and then the TV.
    However, disabling the function that turns the TV on automatically with the Humax power-on button has not solved the issue.
    Any help would be appreciated

    I have seen this a few times but not recently. I agree that the Aura will be culprit. Are you using normal standby or deep standby?

    It was on normal standby, I've now set it to go into deep standby after 3 hours to see if that sorts out the problem.

    This is a known problem, the answer lies with the HDMI output from the Humax.
    what you need is a LINDY adaptor that negates the 12v current on pin 13.
    this is a problem with all Humax boxes and means that the box will control any thing connected to the HDMI output. these adaptors can be found on E-BAY and Amazon.

    Thank you, deep standby did not resolve so the adapter is the next step.
