Got my new Aura 2 days ago mainly as a replacement PVR as I already have all of Android TV on my Sony Bravia. Having problems with playback of recordings. I get occasional pixilation, some temporary freezes of a few second and frequent dropouts back to the menu (about every 10 minutes or so). Any ideas?

Is live TV OK ?

I must admit I haven't used live TV long enough to test this. I will do so and get back to you.

If anyone has had issues setting remote to control TV, once code is found you have to press the OK button for 3 seconds for it to be saved. User manual has been updated to reflect this.

Not getting any sound from all4 when programme starts.. Sound during ads but then goes off when programme starts!!! Anyone know why?

I'm told this was fixed in recent software update. If your unit has been in standby it should have updated.
I've just streamed something called Taskmaster, and the programme resumed with sound after the first as break.

Hey Barry! You seem to me to have the holy grail of information I.e. what’s been fixed in firmware updates. Are you allowed to share with those who have parted good money for this machine?

If I receive info I can share I will.

Have there been any updates? My update date in the system information is October 29th.

Been running faultlessly for about an hour now so I think it's fine with Live TV. BTW using HD.

That tells us your Freeview reception is fine. Recordings are a bit for bit copy of the digital data stream used for live TV. So replay should be 100% identical.

However were you watching the same channel as you had problems with recording ?

Some Freeview Mux are harder to get especially the ones on COM 7 and COM 8

Does the Aura support remote recording via an app or mYHUMAX site?

The aura app is not yet available. Guessing it will support remote scheduling. The menus have the option. Not tried it as awaiting the app.

As Graham has stated the App is not yet available...but

You can set timers from myhumax.net if you register the unit, and switch on remote recording.
