Abstract

Systems and methods for scheduling audio and/or visual content for recording using a mobile station are provided. A mobile station can display a content guide listing audio and/or visual content. When a dispatch button is depressed, a request for recording of the audio and/or visual content which is currently selected is sent to a server. The server forwards the request to a television device, which schedules the recording of the selected audio and/or visual content. Reminder messages regarding upcoming audio and/or visual content can be sent to the mobile station. If a dispatch button of the mobile station is depressed when the reminder message is being displayed, a request to record the audio and/or visual content identified in the reminder message is sent to the television device.
