    Sometimes, perhaps 20% of the time, when returning to Live TV from a recording or from watching something streaming, I get a black screen with no pictures or audio on the TV feed.

    I've been able to get the pictures back by opening up another app, starting a short stream, and then returning to the TV.

    Am I the only one having seen this? I'd be surprised if I was the only one!

    Hit the Freeview Play button, then Live TV. It restarts the app, as opposed to switching to it. Seems to work in my case.

    I have had the box for a couple of days now and this has happened to me about 5 times. It always happens after returning to live TV from the apps.
    A reset to the box fixes it.

    Yes, quite often happens, same thing with sound as well.

    Don't bother with a reset, especially if the box is recording, just do what the the poster above says, press "Freeview" on RC, select "Live TV" then press "OK" - job done.

    Nah, that doesn't work. Still persists with black screen, no sound. Only full box reboot sorts it.

    For anyone still having this problem, click the S/AD button twice then you should get the circling load screen, then the problem is resolved for me. Hope
    this is sorted in update?

    I get what I am assuming is the same issue when coming out of standby after a long period (a day or more).

    More often than not when turning the Aura on, I will get a picture but no sound from Live TV. The sound will be working as I can hear menu notification sounds, and if I open any other app sound will be working fine, but nothing from Live TV. A quick standby cycle (into standby and then back out again) always sorts it, but it would be nice to get this annoyance fixed.
