Two V360 boxes in same location

Tuning in

I am out of contract with Sky and am seriously contemplating going to Virgin for TV - I already have Virgin Broadband.

I would also be looking for multi-room, which I believe results in a second box. 

In my house, all of my AV kit is located centrally and HDMI or Cat6 sends the signals around the house as needed. Infrared remote signals are sent back to the central location via ethernet.

If I locate both V360 boxes together, Is it possible to get them to respond to different IR commands? Or if I send an IR command, will both boxes react?

I would welcome any answers you're able to provide. 

Note, I'm aware that the V360's come with a Bluetooth remote, but I would be using my own programable remote control for these, which issues Infrared signals.

All 360 boxes respond to the same IR commands.

So you would need to find a way to shield each box from picking up the IR signals meant for the other.

The 360 has a RF4CE remote which is not exactly the same as Bluetooth.
