With the mini drivers you have direct access from the 'Watch' menu to the main built in streaming services, so you can have 'Watch Netflix', 'Watch Prime Video', 'Watch iPlayer' etc the the TV will power on and go directly to that service. If already on it will switch pretty much instantly to the chosen media streaming service. 3. No ugly IR emitter on TV at all. 4. Works with other Annex4 drivers to display on-screen messages in response to other event, such as a doorbell press, a door being unlocked, movement on a camera etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Lowe Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Technically it will but the wifi goes to sleep so it may miss the on command. Probably some things to do to defeat that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lippavisual Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 I have a couple using wifi no problem. Trust me, if there was a problem with it, I'd hear about it from the customer real quick. I believe it was a webOS update that allowed the wifi radio to stay active during standby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lippavisual Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Here's an excerpt from Annex4's website for the driver. IMPORTANT: We ONLY support an installation with WiFi on WebOS 3.5 with the Turn on via WiFi setting. All other installations MUST be hard wired. So it was a WebOS update that enabled it. I remember when I first thought of using the driver for a project that we didn't have any network in a few locations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
