Where your receivers live matters less than whether they’re already connected.
If each TV already has a DirecTV receiver connected behind it, Cinemar can control those receivers over IP without installing a new video distribution system or running additional network cables. By utilizing your venue's existing coaxial cabling for network communication, Cinemar makes installation simpler and more cost-effective.

Unlike traditional IR remotes, which can unintentionally change channels on multiple receivers at once, Cinemar allows you to select and control each DirecTV receiver independently, eliminating unwanted channel changes.

Simple, familiar control for staff.
Use one Cinemar touchscreen to select a DirecTV receiver and change its channel. Your package includes integration of your actual venue floor plan with TV controls at their corresponding locations when you provide the imagery, typically as a PDF.
If only one employee knows how to change the channels, your TV control system is too complicated. Cinemar makes everyday DirecTV channel changes easier with visual, centralized controls.
Change every DirecTV receiver to the same channel with one click.
Jump to frequently watched DirecTV channels with a single touch.
Store the channel assigned to each DirecTV receiver and recall all those assignments with one click. Have game day channels pre-configured for your staff exactly the way you want it.
Activate Lock Source, then tap TVs on the venue floor plan. Each selected TV changes to the channel on the currently selected DirecTV receiver.
See which TVs are tuned to the same DirecTV channel. When you select a TV on the floor plan, every other TV showing that channel is highlighted with a green halo for easy identification.
Show staff a visual indicator on the floor plan when a guest may be watching a TV. It is a reminder to avoid changes, not a channel-change lock.
Simple, same-day setup: You or a local installer can connect the pre-programmed equipment, with Cinemar phone and remote support available. In a typical installation, you can be up and running the same day.
Your venue’s TV controls aren’t limited to the main touchscreen.
With a compatible third-party app, you can also access your Cinemar control system from an iPad or mobile phone in the venue or on the road. Give authorized staff another convenient way to manage DirecTV channels and TV selections without returning to the main touchscreen.
Mobile and tablet access requires a third-party app and appropriate system configuration.
Cinemar prepares the control system before shipment.
Share how many TVs and DirecTV receivers you have and where they’re located.
We prepare the controller, touchscreen and wiring diagrams for your venue.
You or a local installer connect the equipment, with Cinemar remote and phone support available.
Cinemar also supports cable receiver control configurations. Cable boxes may need IR control hardware, while DirecTV receivers use IP control. Tell us about your existing equipment so we can recommend the right configuration.
