    Runaway Recording

    Had an Aura for almost 3 years now and have over that time experienced three or four instances of runaway recordings. Last one I recall would have been about a year ago. Only way to stop them was to remove the power cable. No idea what causes it. Just one of the many little gifts the Aura will...

    Frozen Planet II - Missing episode 3

    No idea why it wasn't shown. It is available On Demand from the BBC iPlayer. You can also download it to your computer from the BBC iPlayer website and play it on your TV via your computer and HDMI cable using the BBC iPlayer Downloads app...

    "do you want to shut down?"

    I doubt signing up for the mobile app is the same as registering the Aura with Humax, you would need to get in touch with them to find out if you have the 2 year warranty. If you still think the remote is malfunctioning rather than the more likely 'sticky keys' scenario then you can try...

    "do you want to shut down?"

    Did you register the Aura with Humax after your purchase, Humax would then have given you a 2 year warranty as would buying it from John Lewis, Richer Sounds and possibly others. Which reseller was it that provided the Aura through Amazon. I doubt the remote is malfunctioning but the keys are...

    "do you want to shut down?"

    More than likely the button is sticking, I sometimes have this with the Freeview button. Try running very gently mind a needle or pin round the button to free up any dirt that may be causing the issue. The green light on the remote means it is using BlueTooth, the red light means it is using...

    "do you want to shut down?"

    Aura hasn't received any updates since August 2021. A short press on the Power button will put it into standby. A slightly longer press on the power button will result in the Power off dialogue "Do you want to shut down". If you choose OK it will power down, but it will perform any recordings...

    Freeview via the internet

    Just to let you know I use an indoor aerial which feeds a Humax Aura and then looped into a Humax 5000T and then looped to the TV, all devices get good signal strength and picture quality, occasional pixellation happens not often enough to be too distracting. Because of my situation, a first...

    Freeview via the internet

    Which Humax box have you just bought? If you take the aerial out from the Humax and plug it directly in to the TV is the picture pixellated. Put the aerial back in the Humax and the aerial loop back into the TV. Now check the Signal Strength through the Settings on the Humax, try it over...

    Nothing being displayed in HD (all SD resolution)

    On the Aura remote press the S/AD button twice you should see the Audio Video Options panel. Next to Video Source you will see the input resolution followed by the Display output resolution. For example at the moment I am watching Channel 4 HD. Video Source is 1920x1080@25fps / Display...

    Over-saturation on iPlayer UHD

    Have watched The English on Amazon Prime in UHD and it is also oversaturated same as on iPlayer UHD. Recorded The English on my Aura in HD and colours are not as saturated. Colour space is BT 2020. If other iPlayer UHD streams display as you would expect then it must have been a choice of the...

    Recordings lost after Aura Factory Reset

    How many times have you powered down, unplugged waited and then restarted the Aura, it may take more than one attempt. Of the couple of times my 5000T came up with an empty recordings list it took two to three times of power downs and ups for the list to reappear. Also be patient and make sure...

    Recordings lost after Aura Factory Reset

    A factory reset does not erase/ delete your recordings. Try switching off the Aura unplugging it for a few minutes and then plug it back in and restart and see if your recordings list reappears. I have had a similar problem with a 5000T and switching off, unplugging and restarting restored the...

    5000t cant find channels

    I am well aware of that. But you can't just hook the box up try Auto tune once and then decide the unit must be faulty. That is why I gave manual tuning instructions. At least we should wait to see if the OP has any success with manual tuning. If not then they can return the box either for a...
