As it is documented in the manual that it works I suggest you contact Humax support, point them to this thread and ask them how to get it to work.

Not asking certainly won't be fruitful!

What I've been trying to do for the past two days is to use FTP to copy video files (.mp4 and .ts) from my laptop to the Aura. I have currently tried the FTP clients FileZilla and WinSCP. The results were identical.Which folder on the Aura are you trying to transfer them to?

Movies. But as neither FTP program will connect to the Aura I can't get as far as copying a file.

Update - I've finally discovered what was preventing the FTP clients from working. On the Aura, in Record and Share, I had to switch on Allow Anonymous. That's it, all that faffing about because of one little setting that didn't appear to have any relevance to the issue. Still, it's working now and I have sucessfully transferred several files (which can be viewed using VLC).
So thank you to all the posters who heroically helped me out with this problem!

Thanks. See my post (2 in this thread).
It's a case of RTFM I'm afraid as the manual says you have to set Allow Anonomous ...
RTFM??? Read The Manual ...

RTFM??? Read The Manual ...What you say is true, but I find the manual and your post 2 a little ambiguous. The manual only refers to setting File Share to On in order to transfer files to/from a PC. The Allow Anonymous switch implies it's only needed if I want to allow anybody access to the HDD. As I am the only user, I didn't think this was necessary. Also, because of the Note, I thought that when File Share was On (which is needed to use FTP) then Allow Anonymous is greyed out. The User Name is preset anyway.
So maybe you can understand my confusion. After all, FTP is not my native language!

Indeed. I was winding you up!
