    I’ve noticed that if I’m watching a recording (whilst it is being recorded and I’m behind the live time) it sometimes just pauses for a few seconds and then starts again - not caused by me! Anyone else?

    Is your box WIFI connected or hard wired. Suspect it might be down to WiFi connection.

    Mine is hard wired but I will see IF I can replicate this.

    I have set a recording at 10:00 today on BBC1 HD. I will start viewing it about 15 mins after it started.

    Watched it for 30 mins with no issues. Download a WiFI Analyzer or similar for a mobile device. Place it close to the Aura location. I use a single pair of homeplugs between my router and have a 16 way network switch that uses the Homeplugs to get wired connections for all my kit

    It runs at around 300 Mbps which is 3 times faster than my isp download speed.

    I don’t see how WiFi comes into it. I’m watching a few minutes behind of a live freeview channel that is being recorded. I am watching it from the scheduled recording as it is happening not on the live channel itself if that makes sense. Without me pausing it stops and the screen freezes and then will start again but jumps forwards the few seconds it was stopped for. I’m waiting for the attenuator I ordered so once I know this is working I can see if it still happens or maybe it’s all wrapped up in a too strong signal.

    If you rewind a few minutes does it always happen at the same place. If so it must be on the recording. Signal clipping is a definite possibility.

    If you stream to the aura app WiFI is also a possible candidate. Any issues streaming 4K from Youtube ?

    No sign of this on my box.

    I’ve not been able to do proper diagnostics on this but next time it happens I will. I will update this thread when I do...

    How could anyone stream to the non-existent Aura app?

    I was making the point as and when the app becomes available.
