They had UK factories in Ipswich and Brum ready to go and get the roll out of fibre done in the late 80s/ early 90s, but decided to close down the factories, sell the patents to the far east, and opted for copper instead to allow US cable companies access to our market in the name of competion.. warning from history much?

Had a look at the manual and the initial tune is done via the app so as long your smart devices can run that it shouldn't be an issue. Only one device could watch live TV at a time as I understand it, but multiple streams of recorded content / your media on external drive.

It takes your Freeview TV signal as its input, and then distributes it to any devices via wifi.

I think it streams TV from your normal aerial across your wireless network?

Or it can set up its own wireless network to stream to devices, either/or.

Interesting device. I assume it can only send freeview rather than connecting to say a satellite or cable box and sending that around the house?
That would be a lot more useful imho since most modern tvs have their own freeview tuner anyway...

I assume you can output via coaxial anything.

But this can only be used for live TV. What does it have to do with catch up TV!?

It records live TV...you can programme it to do so...much cheaper this than a Freeview recorder or YouView box that don't stream to non TV devices, it is also a lot cheaper to buy and add a cheap external hard drive or use one you already have (and easily portable).
This can also be used anywhere you can get a TV signal, glamping/caravanning etc to broadcast to devices.

It says you can record live TV by attaching a USB device.
