2 boxes - is it possible to only list recordings requested on the box being used

[TwickenhamUser]

Before the 360 upgrade MyShows listed recordings specifc to the room where they were triggered.

The 360 box automatically lists all recording irrespective of the box they were made on. 

You can however view the planned and actual recordings on an individual box when going to Recordings > Recorded > View All > and then clicking on Recorded (to the right of the Search icon) and then click on 'Recorded on this Virgin TV box'.  The interface will then list the recordings made on that particular box along with percentage space used on that box (you  will need to do that each time you use that interface as the box doesn't save that option)

Some additional unrelated info which might be useful going forward.

You can fine tune the recordings between boxes by clicking on the red Record button, then on the next screen click Advanced Options, then on the next screen click on Choose TV Box, then select the box you want the recording to be made on, then click on Record. That program will then be recorded on that box going forward, even if the default recording box is one of the others.

When setting up a new series link go to Advanced Options and select which box you want the recording to be made on. It will then be recorded on that box going forward. If though you've already got a series link set up for a particular program and want to change it so it will record on the other box then you need to cancel that series link, and then set it up to record again, using the advanced options when you press record.

What you've hit on is one of the fundamental differences between TiVo-software (on a V6) & Horizon-software (on a TV360)

TiVo & V6 boxes are all fully independent recording boxes with multiroom streaming between them. TV360 is designed around one-central recording pool with all the additional boxes able to access that.

Thus you can mitigate with some of the advanced options already mentioned - but fundamentally TV360 is not TiVo and works differently. You've hit on one of the differences.
