Bug or Feature?

I have 2 cameras on the back of my house. I have a mode where if either one senses motion they both start recording.

I've been getting spurious alerts from one of the cameras so I turned it off with the thought that I will troubleshoot it when I had some time.

However, when I check the library I see that the camera that has been turned off has actually been recording when the other camera senses motion (as configured).

Not a real problem, but I found it interesting that it will record when turned off.

Yep it's a bug but according to Netgear, it's a feature. Apparently "OFF" doesn't always mean that. Problem was previously reported, however we were told that's the way it's supposed to be.
