Has there been a new (small) update dated 29th January?Yep small update to the application version.
For example, in the record and share menu you will note entry 'Mobile App' and on selecting displays QR codes for the app stores.
Can someone clarify how to check if you’ve had the update. My details still show the 14th Jan as latest. Should this info be updated with a later date post this small update.
Impressed this morning as the box had picked up last night that it was going to record 5 simultaneous programmes, all on series link, and changed one of them to record the +1 channel instead.

Ok thanks. That’s what I thought but it hadn’t been updated. Just checked this morning and it must have been updated overnight.

I have no update notification and if I check manually for updates it says I have none. I've even deleted the notification from the last 9.14 update in case that was interfering and holding it up.
I'm interested in this update if it has stabilised the signal as I do sometimes have pixilation on recordings.
Any ideas?

I restarted the box after the update and set up three recordings on channels on ARQ A, B and SDN muxes, and kept half an eye on the signal quality for a while and it remained at 100% throughout. I will keep my fingers crossed that this continues given that this was only a small update. Another thing that seems to have disappeared is picture-in-picture!
This small update does not seem to be the solution.

Yep, that worked, I can FTP in now, thank you!
I was hoping to get access to more, specifically the Android/Data folder (so I can manage Kodi files, config and paylists from my laptop), but it seems they're only giving access to media related docs. I'll see if I can move the files with a file manager on the box. Better than no access though I guess!Great. If you find out the purpose of the upload dir in recordings let me know. It has a text file there saying 'Upload your recordings here and you can restore them.' I cannot see how to 'restore' them so that Aura can play them.
I found that if I downloaded a recorded file in it's original format (SD or HD) and then deleted it from the Aura's front end, if I then re-uploaded it to the "Uploads" directory it was processed by the Aura automatically and added back into the front end view of Recordings etc (along with a converted version).
So I think that is the functionality - in theory allowing you to archive off recordings from a "full" Aura and reinstate them at a later date.

Thanks for that. I didn't try to put back an Aura recorded file. Clever if it manages to reinstate an HD file as they are 'encrypted' and not playable off the box.

All recordings are encrypted on the box, so of course they can be played. I think you mean off the box.
The old Foxsat-HDR allowed you to copy encrypted recordings to USB and play them back on box direct from usb. You couldn't play them back on anything else.
The required decryption keys are stored on the box and are unique to the motherboard. So if you try and copy same from another box it will not work.
Basically HD recordings copied using FTP retain the encryption and the required sidecar support files so after deleting them they can be replaced as if they were never deleted.
Does anyone know if there is a way to change the Aura to go straight to the Android TV home page when it's turned on? Instead of turning on a TV channel? Thanks
