Can't Configure New Remote
Hi all,

I have recently bought an additional remote control (the blue one) for my Virgin Media Samsung box as I have extended it to the upstairs telly. I am having trouble configuring it to control the volume etc on my tv. I understand that you have to press Volume + and mute for 3-4 seconds and then the LED should flash twice. The problem I have is that if I press and hold the two buttons nothing happens.

Are the two buttons that need to be pressed the same for all Virgin Media remotes?

Regards,

Rob

No, they aren't. The instructions for the blue remotes are in the Articles section, here.
