Super easy to set up
Worked perfectly with my cable company supplied Tivo Roamio remote. Took about fifteen minutes to pair with the remote but all you do is plug in the dongle, press a few buttons on the remote and leave it while it does its thing and cycles through codes until it matches. Can use the remote through walls which was the point because we put the Tivo/cable box in the room on the other side of the wall so we don't clutter the living room with cables and boxes.

Must use smaller TiVo remote
Wont work with the older TiVo remotes - there's no "Back" button on those which is required to pair the unit. You have to use the smaller & newer TiVo remotes (or the TiVo slide remote) in order to pair this and then it works great. This was a great solution when the IR repeater wouldn't work because the TiVo Mini uses RF and not IR. To pair, you hold down the Power + Back buttons for 10-15 seconds and you'll see the light change and your paired up.

Works as Hoped
My Roamio mini did not come with the RF remote. I bought the RF remote and this USB-RF dongle to receive the signal. It was not easy, but I got it paired to the mini and is working as I had hoped.

Arrived as described and on time. If you aren't ...
Arrived as described and on time. If you aren't using the TIVO Roamio (which accepts the slide remote as is), but some other TIVO DVR instead (like me), chances are that it has an IR receiver, but no RF receiver. The IR eye will receive standard remote functions, but not the alpha-numeric ones from the QWERTY keyboard on the slide remote. If you use the resident Netflix or YouTube functions or if you use the search function on the TIVO receiver often, then you will probably want to get a slide remote and the RF receiver. It is so much more seamless compared to hunting and pecking with arrow keys and the select button.

Lost my old Slide Pro USB dongle. long story, don't ask.
Los the old USB dongle for my beloved Slide Pro remote for my Tivo Premiere. This one worked perfectly. Exact same thing that came with the remote originally.

It works, but raises the price of the special remote $20 since you need this to surf the net with the better controller

Worked Great with the RF remote I already Had
I though that I would have to buy a new remote as well, I did not. If you have a RF Remote this will work. Do not need the slide remote as long as it is a RF remote.

Works great with my Premiere and a RF remote from my Roamio.
