Re: Virgin TV Horizon 4 V6
I've no interest in voice control so they can save their money, the current remote will do.

I don't doubt it, I just don't want them to get carried away and think it's the be all and end all of all future TV control.

The current remote won’t do.
The Horizon interface and remote is completely different from the TiVo interface and remote.

So it doesn't use UP/DOWN/LEFT/RIGHT/OK and numbers?
Worrying.

Re: Virgin TV Horizon 4 V6
No Netflix and Amazon Prime buttons? Shame.

Re: Virgin TV Horizon 4 V6
I will miss the Tivo style remote, (if I take Horizon) It feels good in your hand, the one above looks so flat. Reminds me of the old Virgin TV black box ones.

No but with a user profile, you could easily set say a press of 1 to take you directly to Netflix.

Re: Virgin TV Horizon 4 V6
Thanks for the the remote buttons picture RobboEdin. I like the "contextual" one. And the "input" one is useful, saves keeping the manufacturer one handy. Any indication if it's Bluetooth or RF?

Or just say Netflix into the remote I presume , that's the way I open it the quickest with the Q voice control.

No pressing 1 requires no speaking. Pressing the voice button requires you to say Netflix, have it interpreted and then open the app. Single button press, no speaking for me.

Re: Virgin TV Horizon 4 V6
I keep accidentally pressing the Netflix button on my Panasonic Blu-Ray remote control. It is really annoying.
