First Look at the New TiVo Premiere Interface

The new TiVo Premiere interface is shiny and the UI is quite responsive and “native” feeling, with live streams of video playing without a hitch. The biggest hint that there’s a big amount of reliance on the internet is the fact that the choked connection here was causing thumbnails and even some UI icons to take a little while to pop in.

It also have pretty intuitive and helpful ways to find and promote relevant content. Unfortunately, while we appreciate the full QWERTY input, the sliding mechanism is utterly cheap and shoddy — we’re assured that it’s a couple revisions away from a final design.
