Planet Earth Bluetooth was great, but Planet Earth II in 4 K is fantastic. When it come out on Netflix I will compare, but the clarity and color of 4 K is hard to believe. Too bad National Geograph Channel doesn't do stuff like this, instead of stupid reality tv. DA

Will this record OTA TV broadcasts ? Or do I have to record from streaming signal only ? My end goal is to simply use HDTV antennas, but be able to record shows ( similar to the days of a VCR ). Prefer not to stream, long story...If not, other products ?

I use PLEX to record Cobert and Trevor Noah to watch on my time, it will cut out the commercials

 WeMo - Mini WiFi Smart Plug
WeMo - Mini WiFi Smart Plug
Convert almost any electronic device into a smart appliance with the Wemo Mini Wi-Fi smart plug. It plugs into any outlet and lets you control attached appliances via mobile devices.
 

I have a wemo insight switch, and a wemo mini plug, I have both devices on my wemo app, I bought a second wemo mini for another room and plugged it in, but the problem is that it does not show up on my wemo app, I do not know how to find it.

I have had a similar problem with some of mine also, not sure if this will help. I brought the device into the room where the router was and plugged it in right next to the router, went through the setup again (sometimes more than once. Once setup I moved it to the other end of the house. I have 3 about 40 feet from router for several years and have been working fine
