Aura App

Hi,

Has anyone else had the issue with their Aura App not syncing the TV guide which has now made it impossible to set up recordings remotely this past week.

I have also had the issue of I cant watch the live TV in the app (but shows what is correctly on tv) and stream recordings from the Aura to the app. But I have discovered that I can still view live TV and recordings on my devices via the VLC App.

I have contacted humax but im not getting a response.

Thread 'Aura app not populating the Programme Guide'

I'm currently on holiday in Australia and the app has stopped populating the guide. It was working for a few days and I was able to set up some recordings. But last week the guide became progressively empty as the days went on. Now we have started a new week and the guide is completely blank, so I cannot set any more programmes for the Christmas period. The guide is also blank on MyHumax.net but I suppose that's because my MyHumax.net account picks up that information from my Aura?
Unless someone has any suggestions, I suppose I'm stuffed.
 
I need some help. I can’t get the app to connect to my Aura Box on my iPhone. Both the box and my phone are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. I’ve already reset the router and the box, but it still won’t connect to the app. What do I need to do to get it working? Does anyone know on here
 
I suspect the app does not connect to the Aura directly, but both the app and the Aura connect to a central Humax server and communicate that way. If so, it is irrelevant that they are both on the same network, what is necssary is that they both have access to the server.

I think you may be wrong. Sometimes when I connect to the Aura using the app (not something I do often) I can see information that says "Connected for Home & Remote features". Other times I get "Connected for Remote features - For Home features please connect to Home network". Underneath these possible messages are a list of available features:
  • TV Guide
  • On Now
  • Schedule
  • Recordings
  • Downloads
  • Casting
(Bold - Remote, Normal - Home=greyed out when only connected for remote features)
Although it claims "downloads" will download recordings when connected for remote features - it doesn't. In fact I can't get it to work at all.
"Schedule" can't save the schedule without a connection to the Aura - so the home network needs to be running.
If neither the Aura nor the phone with the app are connected directly to the internet but are connected to the home network (with no route to the internet) it is still possible to view recordings via the app. Therefore some features use a direct connection - thankfully. I don't fancy shunting recordings up to a Humax server and back down to my phone!
