Default Media Remote Programming / Syncing??

Hello

I have a MY15 car with the senus nav.
I can watch DVD's and all is good, but instead of paying Volvo £75 for a remote control, I purchased one from elsewhere..

However, I can not get it to work.

In the showroom they were using the same remote between cars, so I would suspect it is not a case of costly vida programming??

Any ideas?

The Volvo remote may operate over radio signal as opposed to iR ?

What did you buy?
