Ceton Companion puts total control of Media Center PCs in users' hands, wherever they are, inside or away from home.
With Ceton Companion, the mobile device becomes the remote control. Users can easily browse the TV program guide as well as their DVR recordings and personal movie libraries.

Users can even choose where they want to watch a program, whether on a TV connected to a Media Center PC or one in another room connected to a Media Center extender. The Ceton Companion also serves as an elegant, touchscreen remote to play, pause, record, fast-forward, rewind, and more.

They love the Ceton experience we enable on the PC, and with the Ceton Companion we're bringing that to the mobile phones and tablets they also rely on," said Gary Hammer, president and CEO, Ceton Corp.
