* Wishlists - Not unless the programme is currently scheduled or available on demand.
* undelete - No, but streaming alternatives are normally available if you delete something accidentally.
* series link+ - No, you cannot select a programme that is not currently listed or on demand.
* series link manager - You can click on programme details and select ‘delete series link’. You can also delete all recordings on your box with a touch of a button in ‘Settings’
* suggestions - Yes, displayed on tiles on Home Screen (‘Recommended for you’) instead of on a list
* skip-back on fast-forward - No
* quickview - No
* default recording options - No, but you can alter start and finish times for your recordings, choose which box to record on and decide how many recordings to keep in the series.
* cancelling individual recordings from a series link - Yes. Just select the episode you want deleted and they will delete without interfering with other programmes in the link.
* multi-channel series links - No
* allowing recording of radio - No, but some BBC programmes previously broadcast can be available via BBC Sounds.
* separation of recordings between boxes - No - all recordings made are available on both boxes.
* watching recordings when internet is not available - No
Against that, the 360 has the following features that are not available on the V6:
*Restart live TV
*Creation of profiles
*Voice control
*Switch from watching on TV to app
*Uncluttered UI so you can find functions more easily
*Automatic start of all recordings two minutes before programme scheduled
*Podcasts
*Enlarged TV Guide available
*A prompt to delete a recording when watched
*When using TV On Demand, a prompt to move immediately to next episode appears.
*More streamers available including Paramount+ and AppleTV+.
So people who are considering whether to stick with the V6 or change to the 360 can take their pick. Personally, I am glad I made the change.
