DISH Network® Introduces World's First 'SlingLoaded' HD DVR at 2009 Consumer Electronics Show
Thursday January 8, 8:00 am ET
New 1 Terabyte High Definition DVR with Integrated Slingbox, Touchpad Remote Control and Tile-based User Interface
DISH Network will offer the ViP® 922 to customers in Spring 2009.
The ViP® 922 allows TV enthusiasts to watch and control their favorite TV shows and sporting events from anywhere in the world via a broadband Internet connection on their laptop or mobile phone. With five video sources, including satellite, broadband and optional over-the-air tuners, viewers will never run out of shows to watch. The ViP® 922 also features a multi-tuner DVR with up to 1,000 hours of recording time and supports connecting external hard drives for even more storage capacity.
An innovative touchpad remote control accompanies the ViP® 922, which eliminates half the buttons of a standard remote control and provides cursor- like navigation on a TV screen. With a slide of the thumb, viewers experience scroll-over activation of the new user interface: on-screen widget-like tiles and pop-up menus. All features are selectable by an underside index finger trigger selection on the radio frequency-controlled remote, which offers two- way learning of codes from other AV equipment remote controls.
The ViP® 922 can also be controlled using SlingGuide™, a new way for consumers to control their TV viewing experience over the Internet. SlingGuide features a powerful search engine for the TV along with the ability to schedule the ViP® 922 DVR timers remotely.
Other ViP® 922 features include:
-- News feeds located on the home screen, giving viewers instant access to national news, weather, sports, and stock quotes.
-- Ability to organize channels by channel name or number.
-- 1080p, 1080i, 720p, 480i and 480p support.
-- Internet-delivered DISH On Demand including 1080p content.
-- Ability to move one day in the guide while browsing full screen EPG or partial EPG.
-- Connections to home networks via Ethernet, HomePlug Turbo (the next generation of HomePlug that allows for faster in-home transfer of content using home power lines), or WiFi (with optional WiFi adapter).
-- Powerful search capability across all available video sources, including IP, VOD, satellite or DVR.
-- Intuitive timer creation and DVR management, allowing users to categorize programming by groups (video source, title, genres) or by content description (date, length, ratings and more).
-- Ability to load photos, MP3s and selected Internet content.
-- Future upgrades such as photo sharing, movie ticket purchases, family calendars, instant messaging, streaming audio, and the ability to transfer content within a home network
