Aura Android 14 update now

Not joking it's out!!!!!!
So some random person who has only ever posted here once before and that was in a EE/BT thread is the first person to know about this before even the Beta testers here or Cordbusters and AV forums? even before Humax mention it on their site. :disagree:

If this was not a deliberate attempt to troll it may have been a foolish assumption that this would affect the Aura 👇

Release Details​

  • Release Date: June 16, 2026

What you on about? Random person ? I posted on the other humax forum lots of times before it closed!
Press update on your Aura and you'll see the update!!!
I'm a troll - what are you 🤡

We wouldn't know – "the other Humax forum" wasn't worthy of us. Your history/reputation over there means nothing here.
Indeed. Barry made it quite clear that any postings mentioning hummy.tv or cryptically referring to it as "the other place" would be deleted, and certainly the modest number I posted about hummy.tv on myhumax.org were. I found him a thoroughly arrogant person full of his own importance. No-one ever deleted a post on here about myhumax.org that I'm aware of.

It's a shame the two sites couldn't work together, they both had/have merit and approached things in different ways. But Barry was dead against any mention of custom firmware and especially encryption removal. Couldn't he have just looked politely the other way?

Alrighty, how about some evidence.
Have you downloaded and installed this update.
Can you show us a picture of the System Information page if you have updated.
Settings> Freeview Play Preferences> System Information.

If you have downloaded and installed the update was there any information as to the contents.
Is this a purely Android update which will affect the streaming/ apps side of the PVR.
Or is it a Humax update that addresses the many bugs and flaws inherent with the Aura and its Humax OS.
