Use Virgin 360 remote with V6

Is it possible to use the Virgin 360 remote with the V6 service? The V6 remote is big and clunky. The 360 remote is nicer. I don't want to upgrade to 360 just yet as I have loads of V6 recordings to watch so buying time .... but would be great to use the newer remote on the old V6 box.

    Hi balsingh 

    Thanks for posting and welcome back to the community.

    No that wouldn't be an option to use the 360 remote on the V6 service itself, only to do the upgrade.

    Best wishes.

    Horizon remotes operate a box with Horizon 360 firmware, TiVO remotes do likewise with TiVO firmware. They are not interchangeable except with the most basic of functions.
