Pairing tv360 remote with Samsung Tv?
With a apologies for my poor technical language below: I have just purchased a new Samsung QE65QN90D TV & wondered if it may be possible to set up my 360 remote control so it acts universally across the TV as well as the 360 box ? ie Using a single rather than 2 different remote controls? I was able to do this with my previous Phillips TV & was wondering if it may be possible on Samsung TVs also ?Virgin 360 is appalling
I’ve just submitted this as a complaint and I’m copying my complaint here. I wish I’d read these reviews before I upgraded. It looks like I’m not the only one. I called three weeks ago to report a minor fault on my TiVo box. I was advised “you need to upgrade to Virgin 360“. Your technician advised me with all confidence, “It’s much better, it’s quicker, you’ll have much more facilities than you have on the V6 system.” I did as I was advised. He was lying through his teeth. Virgin 360 is absolutely atrocious. Far worse than the V6 system I’ve enjoyed for 10-15 years. Far worse in every respect. The only benefit it gives me a occasionally being able to log onto other TV channels such as iPlayer and ITV X, which is of no use to me because I can do that from my smart TV. Let me list for you the way in which it is abysmal. It fails to record programs which I have set. It records a program but only records half of it. It records a completely different program to the one I’ve set, (I was actually watching a TV program late night, pressed record and went to bed, and when I got up the next morning it had recorded something completely different.) Frequently, very often, when I go to play a show I have recorded and which is showing in my recordings I get an error message, saying the show cannot be played. This happens a lot. When I login into iPlayer, next time I go to iPlayer, it wants me to login with a QR code all over again. This has happened to me several times in one week. Logging straight back in is about 50% effective. Numerous programs and channels showing in the TV Guide, I can no longer record. That never happened under V6. In addition, there are all those facilities I used to have that are no longer available. I used to be able to: Pause and go forward in slow motion Pause and go forward a frame at a time. (Useful watching sport). Go forward on record recordings or paused TV 15 minutes at a time. Watch at accelerated speed with Sound. Fast forward and when I press pause, it would jump back slightly so I hadn’t overshot what I was looking for. Move the TV guide forward in two hour blocks. Revert to the previous channel I was watching, with one click of a dedicated button. Subdivide my recordings into movies only, or partially watched. Recover recordings which I had deleted recently. And the remote control had dedicated buttons for, “info“, “subtitles,“ “my recordings” Overall, the previous V6 system apart from one or two minor issues, was flexible, user friendly and extremely robust. In contrast the 360 system is inflexible, flaky, falling apart, not user friendly, not enjoyable to use at all. Absolutely [REMOVED] useless.Scheduled recording
Hi I have had 3 360 but had 2 of them replaced at the weekend so now have one 360 and two of the stream boxes. Since they have been fitted all our schedules for recording are not working it asks me to subscribe to view them? I believe they are linked to the removed boxes I have factory reset the 360 box and it now shows I have 0% recordings but the old schedule recordings are still showing and will not delete. On my go app it still shows my old 360 boxes so I think these need to be removed off my system. I have reached out to the call centre but I don't think they understood what I was saying. Any advice on how to remove the old 360 boxes off the one I still have
Virgin tv 360 mini box buffering
So having upgraded (joke) from 2 TiVo boxes one upstairs and one downstairs with no problems to Virgin tv 360 box and mini box in June the mini box is useless I can’t watch anything that’s been recorded on it, it is constantly buffering I can’t only watch live tv, which destroys the whole object of the exercise it’s obviously a connection problem but I can’t move the box closer to the router and can’t move the router closer to the mini box. I got a virgin wifi pod but it doesn’t seem to have made any difference. Any help would be greatly appreciated
360 box no thank you
Received 360 handset information sheet tells you what it does but doesn’t tell you how to make it work . Took me some time to work it out need to activate it through the 360 App an update leaflet with handset would be nice but I still don’t want it . 1 virgin handset turns on TV box and soundbar on but won’t turn soundbar off ! 2 won’t operate TV just virgin 3 TV remote operates TV only so now I need 3 three remotes to operate TV box and sound bar 360 handset won’t link with sound bar error CS9993. 4 search & record guide doesn’t show when show first broadcast 5 360 doesn’t show record live and streaming Option 6 need to now press button 6 times to get to recordings. 7cant record a show from start if the show has already started and I’m sure there will be other differences between the V6 handset and 360 that make 360 worse but I’m told my old V6 had old software that had to be updated At present I don’t like it
Error CS2002
Well I "upgraded" to a 360 box and set up went fine. Except I couldn't access the channel 4 app for catch up and one or two other things were glitchy like it wouldn't pair with itv app either. So I thought I'd switch it off at the plug and see if that helped. It didn't and now I get error messages, this channel has failed, we can't show you this channel, check your cables etc. Checked cables, factory reset twice and I can't watch anything. Just tried to watch a recording and now it's completely crashed.Tv 360 Deleted Recordings Twice In 2 Weeks!!
I’ve had the V6 Box for a decade with few, if any, problems but was told I needed to upgrade to the TV 360, hand remote, option only. The upgrade was easy compared to some of the issues I saw on here at the time so thought great. This is supposed to be an upgraded better system but in just over two weeks it has deleted recordings and series links with no option to recover them. I see on here that it’s most probably a faulty box so why oh why would Virgin only give updated remote controls with this potential problem that looks like a frequent issue? Does anyone know the easiest way to get in touch with Virgin apart from calling which I’d like to avoid if possible, as I can’t see a live chat option anywhere?
