TiVo recently announced a new feature that I honestly forgot to mention. Luckily, a friendly reader of this site (Matthew) sent me a Tip to remind me of this news.
In case you missed it, TiVo now allows you to search Netflix’s Instant Watch catalog directly from within TiVo’s new search capability. As you’ll see from the screenshots below, I was able to use this new feature to watch one of my most favorite Christmas movies (A Christmas Story). The ability to search for Watch Instant movies is a great feature and it has been something I’ve been looking for ever since Netflix became available on TiVo.
Take a look at this new feature and be sure to let TiVo know what you think (keep in mind that TiVo Search is still in BETA).
I’d much rather have a stand-alone InstantWatch search. When you’re searching through the results it’s tough to see at a glance whether it’s available on instant watch. The tivo search has an option to only show televised or downloadable selections, but it’s still not very intuitive when you know you want to look for instant watch programs.

Love the Amazon downloads and this sounds like a wonderful option! Way to go, TIVO!
