TiVo Roamio and Mini set-tops have begun receiving updates this evening, as the folks in Alviso continue to squash corner case bugs at a rapid clip. But, beyond Roamio tuning, the TiVo Mini extender has received the long overdue feature of a full fledged recording manager UI – via the new menu item highlighted above. So, no more trips to our hub DVR/TV, as the TiVo Mini can now remotely manage those Season Passes. Less interesting is the “What to Watch Now” addition, with its suggestions and interaction seemingly more compelling on a tablet or smartphone. Meanwhile, we continue to wait on Amazon Instant and the Mini’s interface doesn’t yet feature the slight color and font tweaks of Roamio.

I am getting an error when trying to view the What to Watch and a searching for signal on search by time or channel. Hopefully these are this was due to my Premiere XL4 not having the latest code or they have a fix coming.
These are welcome additions. Hoping for a UI update to bring a consistent look between my mini and Roamio.
NICE! Great added functionality to what is a great product.
