360 box instructions

Garsa
Tuning in

Did anyone receive any instructions with their new 360 box? All I have is a booklet called "Virgin TV 360 Grab the remote and get going" which gives gives basic instructions on the remote.

One of these instructions is to 'press the home button and head for Help'. There is no help

Couple of tips the left and right arrow buttons ether side of the OK button skip forward 30 seconds and back 10 seconds, you can also say "fast forward 10 minutes" using speech or whatever amount of time you want

One thing I've noticed is that on the V6 info button you could see every channel the V6 was playing on each of its recorders. Doesn't seem to be anything like that on the 360 where you can wind back to the start for eg. Anyone found a way round that please?

There is no function similar to that available through the V6 Info button.

Also with V6 you could set New Only recordings. Can't see a similar setting on 360. Does it automatically record just new showings or pick up reruns too.

It has been noted that there is no way to specify New Only. Hopefully this will be addressed.

I've looked too and can't find any way to change the setting.  

The more I play around with this, the more I suspect voice control is going to be the way forward.  I wonder if there's a full list of all the commands?
