Hi there,
The virgin box is sat in a comms cabinet in the garage as we use a HDanywhere matrix to distribute. The system uses IR to extend remotes to the cabinet only the 360 update now only uses bluetooth what would you suggest as the best solution in this scenario?

The 360 box will respond to commands from third party IR remotes however they need to have the right code database in them to work
Harmony remotes do, if you can get hold of one now that Logitech have stopped doing them. One4All also apparently work too

The box name is different as you need to set it as 'Ziggo Mediabox Next'

Thanks! This makes sense.
