My “mini” box ( converted V6) isn’t working as it should as when trying to scroll through recordings it will not move. Can I reboot it without incurring problems with the main box?
Thanks

A converted V6 is a TV360-master box, as it retains the HDD. The mini-box is a fresh install or conversion from a TiVo, and doesn't have an HDD.
But yes, you can safely reboot any TV360 without causing issues with other boxes. The only issue you'll ever incur is that if you reboot a box that is hosting some multiroom streaming, then the recipient box will lose the session and need to resume once the host box is backup.

Thanks Japitts
the background to this is that a while ago I converted my two V6 boxes to the 360 and I had two main boxes…( this was a longer story, but due to the way my package was sold to me the engineer came out and fixed it so that I had two main boxes) however a few months ago when the software update happened it wiped out the entire recordings on the second box and “converted” it to a mini box.
I explained all this to the agent when negotiating my new contract shortly after this software update and was told no problem we will fix that etc….then I had various issues with the new volt package regarding Netflix and the O2 sim ( these problems have been fixed) an engineer did visit but they couldn’t reverse the mini to a main….. I could have reverted back to the V6 as the engineer had just done that for a customer near me the day prior.
I will try and reboot/reset the box.
