Does the TiVo DVR support Dish Network/EchoStar?

45-16-09Search Reference Number
 

Series2 DVRs and Series2 DT DVRs are compatible with Dish Network receivers that support IR control; however, the Series2 DT DVR only has single tuner functionality when it is set up with satellite input.

If you have a Dish Network receiver that does not support IR control, the DVR will not be able to change the channel on your satellite receiver.

 

We are aware of two Dish receivers that do not support IR control:
 

  • EchoStar 4000
  • JVC 4500
 

NotesSeries3 HD DVRs are not compatible with any brand of satellite receiver.
