What is the make and model of the TV? Do you also need to operate a dish
network receiver?

[QUAD-L] voice-activated remote control for a smart TV needed, or a way to control the TV through the Nexus cell phone?

[DEBRA DEW]

My smart TV is on dish network, and it resets itself about once every day. No 
problem, except after the reset it tells me to push any button to watch TV. 
Obviously I have no way of doing that so I wait a couple hours until someone 
shows up in my room and miss the show I was watching.


GRRR…


Is there a way I can control the television by voice? It would be wonderful to 
be able to change the channels or turn the volume up and down myself also.

I only change the channel twice a day, and four in the morning and nine in the 
morning at breakfast, so as not to drive the nurses crazy, Or to alienate them 
where they would not change the channel for me at all. It would be great to be 
able to watch something else besides TV land and TBS.
