I have a Humax Aura 2TB Smart Freeview 4K TV Recorder and want to download video files from the recorder to a USB stick. I want to then play the files back on my PC with the files from the USB stick. I have downloaded Filezilla onto my PC but am having trouble connecting the PC to the Humax. I have sent screenshots of my setup and the error messages I am getting. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

Unfortunately the screenshots haven't made it to the forum, probably a file size issue.

If it helps the Filezilla settings I use are:

Protocol: FTP - file transfer protocol
Host: the IP address of the Aura
Port: 2323
Encryption: Only use plain FTP
Logon type: Normal:
user: aura
Password : box pin default 0000

If you are using those settings the tell us the text of the error messages. I assume you have enable the FTP server in the Aura settings?

I have enabled the FTP Protocol on the Humax Aura, in the settings menu.

The second image suggests you are using the Filezilla server package when I think you should be using the Filezilla client (the Aura is in this case the FTP server).

I think you mean that you downloaded the client package. You need to click on the "Site manager" icon immediately below "File" and that will being up a screen where you can fill in ALL the details I provided in post #3.
