If it is anything like previous Humax apps it will be rubbish anyway. I don't really see the benefit anyway, you can catch most stuff up so why need to access an SD recording or have to convert recordings to be able to play on another device? The Aura itself is really good, I had a tr3 before that but with a few tweaks the aura beats it in more ways than one. Any firmware update is a bonus but I know from personal experience a lot of the glitches lie with Android TV rather than the actual device.

I had a problem a few times on the Aura box where I turn it on, usually first thing in the morning and go to live TV. The screen is black on all channels. If I reboot it by going into the settings --> device info --> about --> reset/restart/reboot once it reboots it all comes back and is working fine.
Has anyone else had this?

Has anyone else had this?Are you putting the box into long push sby by selecting OK ? If so it will take several minutes to boot after pressing the power button after it has gone in into full sby. . Nothing will seem to be happening until you get the android loading animation.

Has anyone else had this?I have this reasonably regularly; either no picture or sound, no sound, or most often, picture but no sound. I have never put the Aura into 'long push standby' so it is not this, and I can go into the EPG and see the correct schedule information, but all channels show the same fault. Putting the box into standby and then turning it back on has always sorted it without the need to do a hardware reboot, but clearly it is not ideal.
I also seem to have a sound issue on most recordings, where every few minutes I have a short loss of sound (less than half a second), which again is liveable with for the time being, but needs fixing.
I have previously done a full reset to try and fix these issues but it hasn't sorted it. I am hoping that a firmware update (not an Android TV update) will fix both of these when it eventually turns up.

Yes, mine is doing similar.
Probably 1 out of 4 times I turn it on I either get:
1) Can't display picture thingy due to HDCP handshake
2) Sound but no picture
3) Picture but no sound
I don't use full power off only standby - Unless I have to to get the damn handshake/picture/sound back!
I have turned CEC off this last week and the frequency of the above faults has lessened somewhat. Only had CEC on in the hope the volume would control the TV/Soundbar but of course it does not - contrary to what Humax says in the manual.
I also get:
Scheduled recordings not marked in the guide
Series recording seems to have a mind of its own - works sometimes only - other times I get 2 of the same episode with one missing!
Huge difference in volume between iPlayer and live TV
Will NOT record first on air program on BBC4 in the evening - well it does but it is all blank!
etc.
etc.......Definitely released with pre-beta firmware as far as I am concerned.

I experienced a similar problem with the combination of an HDR-FOX T2 and an LG-49UJ750V.

No. The box is on and I'm in Android TV when it happens.

The blank screen issue, hit the home button on the remote, this should get you to google tv and a picture. Then make sure you exit by choosing TV from the banner at the top.
Hitting TV or back on the remote will not work.
