TiVo’s summer update (20.4.2) has started rolling out. As expected, headlining the visual changes are a new customizable 3-column My Shows view and the release of the TiVo Roamio UI onto Premiere and Mini hardware. Along with the refreshed Premiere interface, is a bullet-worthy speed bump – already confirmed by one of our community peers. From TiVo’s new Service Updates page:
- Updated, modern design: Premiere’s HD interface has a fresh, new look and feel
- Zippier performance within TiVo menus: Navigate through Premiere menus quicker so you can find what you want faster
- New categories in My Shows: Categories in My Shows automatically organize your recordings by genre so you can find a recording faster than ever
- On-demand and web app options now in Guide: You’re no longer limited to live TV when browsing the Guide. With on-demand and web app options now included, browse shows from yesterday, today or tomorrow and watch them anytime with the click of a button
