Hi , I've just upgraded my two v6 boxes to 360 software and very pleased - not perfect but a good improvement.
Only problem is a multiroom question - if i want to carry on watching a ( live) program in another room it says to press record then carry on watching in the other room - only problem is when I go on 'save' and press the recording in the second room the only options are watch live or watch from the beginning ( PS the virgin help says to choose the other box from the menu and watch from there - well that's the instructions for the v6 box with the old software!)

There again, thanks for your reply- this is what I have been doing, but I thought that there must be a more user friendly way of doing it - the v360 blurb seems to indicate that it’s a seem less pause on one box and pickup on another box - that’s my fault for believing the virgin blurb!

If you want to watch a live programme in another room, you just choose whichever channel the programme is on, and watch it live?
Or are you talking about pausing a recording in one room, and resuming that recording on another box?

Hi, what I want to do is pause live tv on box 1, make a cup of tea or whatever then carry on watching from that point on my second box

Hi George59,
The info on the following page should help virgin-tv-watch-recordings-on-another-tv-box#360

Hi, that is the link I was talking about - it says to go to ‘my shows’ - that is the old v6 software- it doesn’t have ‘my shows ‘ on the 360 software it has ‘saved’

Hi again George,
I just noticed that. Further to my previous post. I couldn't find My Shows, but fingers crossed the following method should work.
To watch a paused program - On the main box press Record
On the other box (probably a mini box ) press Home > Saved > Continue Watching and scroll down to the end and you’ll see the name(s) of 360 boxes you have connected.
Select the other box (probably a mini box) and press OK then choose the show you want to watch and press OK

Hi again , there’s nothing there ( I think choosing the other box is a v6 thing again) if you press record it saves on save- recording and as I said the only options are watch from the beginning or watch live
thanks for your help with this , I’ve had 2 v6 boxes for years and this just seems weird!

From the OPs initial post they have upgraded two V6 boxes. As all recordings are shown in one list on V360, all they need to do is find the recording on the list & resume it.

Thanks for your reply, but as I keep saying there are only 2 options - watch from the before watch live
on 09-07-2021 19:04
Ditto, should have read- two options- watch from the beginning or watch live
