Satellite TV News: DISH NETWORK Presents the WORLD’S FIRST DVR SCHEDULER APP for Apple iPad

ENGLEWOOD, Colo., Aug. 5, 2010 – DISH Network L.L.C., the fastest-growing Satellite TV provider in America, announced a free app for the Apple iPad: DISH Remote Access. DISH Remote Access is the first and only app from a Satellite TV service provider specifically intended for the iPad that permits users to control their televisions, manage their programming and scheduling remotely.

Like the version available for the iPhone and iPod touch, DISH Remote Access for the iPad is a fully-featured remote control DVR scheduler that offers DISH Network customers with total access to all DVR functions and features. Users can schedule DVR recordings on multiple receivers, delete timers, browse and search nine days of shows, and manage their DVR libraries by setting recording priorities, resolving recording conflicts and deleting programs they have already watched. The DISH Remote Access app is compatible with most DISH Network Satellite TV SD and HD DVR receivers including the ViP 922, the world’s only DVR with built-in Sling technology.

The iPad-optimized DISH Remote Access app also includes a unique feature that transforms an iPad into a remote control for televisions connected to compatible DISH Network receivers. Using the iPad as a remote control, customers can change channels, browse the program guide, start playing recorded programs and enjoy all standard remote navigation features such as fast forward, rewind and pause.
