Thus, I broke down and just purchased a Roku since I can stream Xfinity stuff on it over the internet and make recordings. Was $98 on Amazon and has expandable storage so I can record a crap load of stuff.

Should come tomorrow because I have Amazon Prime. Looking forward to setting it up.

For now, I've been watching stuff on my living room TV and on my iPad mini. I'm actually surprised it works on my iPad because I got it as a graduation gift in 2013 and I figured it might be "too old" to get the latest OS updates. (I needed a minimum of iOS 10 in order to stream videos to it from Xfinity.)

Anyways, doing well so far! I'm getting a lot of stuff done around the apartment and I'm getting stuff done at work. I'm just taking a break now because I'm running something on my work laptop that takes about 2-3 hours to run, so I can't use the laptop during that time. So, I'm cleaning up and using my personal laptop in the meantime.
Wow! You are getting a lot done! I enJOY my Roku. It is older and does not have the all of the features you have mentioned (or if it does, I am oblivious). it might help if I would put an SD card in it.

Lately, I have been watching shows on my tablet at night because it gives off much less light in the room than does the big TV.

How is it going now that you have restarted the AP med?

Glad to read you are doing so well!
