    I have the tivo bolt vox and am wondering if there is a version of the TiVo remote that has a backlight for the keys and also has a Netflix button? I do not need the voice.
    If there isn't is there a way to program a key on one of the remotes that have the backlight to be a Netflix button?
    Which backlight remote is recommended?

    Thank you very much!

    The VOX remote does have a Netflix button, and it functions with the remote in IR mode. The voice button requires RF mode.

    You could get a slide remote and then teach Netflix command to input or mute key.

    Perfect. That is what I was hoping for and needing to know if that was possible. Thank you very much!

    If running TE4/Hydra, isn't it easier to use one of the number keys for the Netflix shortcut?

    As Joe indicated, the VOX remote has dedicated Netflix, Skip and voice buttons. I think someone indicated this was a Netflix requirement now but not sure if that's correct?
