Thanks for the advice Black Hole, I'll give that a try. I am still interested in the Aura though, and I am impressed so far how they seem to addressing bugs and updating the software even though it isn't 1 year old yet.

Yep, My HDR-Fox-T2 often has the picture freeze but the audio continues as normal, and the remote becomes unresponsive so & power reboot is required. Also, about once or twice a week I start the box and I am prompted to do a first-time setup, e.g. select the language and scan and then select...

Hi, Sorry, but a basic questions that I'm hoping someone can answer. What apps can I install onto the Aura from the Android app store? I am assuming that not every android app will work on the Aura, but I'm particularly looking at apps like VLC, Plex, Amazon Prime, BT Sport & Sky Go. Has...

For me, the user interface is important. I’m still using my trusty Humax HDR-Fox T2 as the menu navigation is just so intuitive. If the Aura is as quick then I may be sold. If the menu navigation however is as clunky as the FVP-4000T then count me out.

Seems our Australian relatives get this box instead http://www.humaxdigital.com/au/buy2.php This comes with Gigabit Ethernet, Bluetooth connectivity easily expandable storage and 4 (yes that's FOUR) tuners, all for the same price as this box! Puts our FVP-4000T to shame.:( Still the shame...

Found this article which was interesting https://recombu.com/digital/article/netflix-humax-narcos-jessica-jones This contains the quote "Humax has also signed up to make Freeview Play hardware, meaning the very first set-top boxes could also come with Netflix present and correct from day one'...

Any ideas of the wireless standard? 802.11g/n or will this have 802.11ac? All the spec sheets i have seen online just say 'wireless built in'.

Has anyone heard of an official release date? Humax said before the end of the year and found a few bits of information on the internet including this link http://www.whathifi.com/humax/fvp-4000t/overview Seems pricing will be around £230 for the 1TB version and around £200 for the 500GB...

Hi All, Just thought I would update this thread, I decided to make the leap & install the customised firmware, and you were all right it is way much better & wishing I did this a long time ago so issue resolved & file now transferred on the new customised firmware! I have many questions on...

Hi Antipodean, My Windows 7 (along with my Windows 10 PC) are both formatted to NTFS but any attempt to FTP through Filezilla will only transfer 3.99GB :(

Thanks for your help (most of you) I just thought I would explain what I have & have not tried. I have successfully 'foxy'd' the file to remove the 'enc' flag. As far as transferring the file goes, I have formatted the 64GB memory stick to either NTFS, Fat32, Ext2, Ext3 by using 3rd party...

Thanks for the replies, Yep, I can see that Fat32 has a max file size of 4GB as the max I can transfer from the Hummy to my PC is 3.99GB (not the 3.03GB i stated earlier :() I meant that Windows PC's cannot format any HDD / memory stick to Fat32 larger than 32GB. With regards to transferring...

Hi, Sorry if this is a stupid question but I have been searching for an answer but I am at a dead-end. I am trying to transfer a large recording from my Hummy HDR fox T2 to my PC for editing. The problem is the file is 5 hours of HD recording totalling 27GB file size. After searching here &...

Hi, My trusty old HDR- Fox T2 box has always worked fine & was fine last night, However, got up today 23rd June & had the message 'No channels found, please re tune' It is as if the box has been rest to default settings and all scheduled recordings were gone. Has anyone else had this issue...

It has my attention also :), 3 tuners would be a godsend to me, and remote recording? Gigabit LAN ports? USB 3.0 ports? Wireless ac standard? these are some features that would be on my wishlist!
