Copying shows from old Tivo to new

Is there no way to batch move shows directly from one Tivo to another? (i.e., more than one at a time)



I have a Premiere and am thinking about buying a Roamio. I have Tivo Desktop installed and thought I read somewhere that, once downloaded to the computer, I could "push" them to the new unit. Is that true?



So my options are:



1) Set up new Roamio and queue one show at a time (copied directly from Premiere to Roamio)



2) Copy all Premiere shows to computer, then push to Roamio with:



a) Tivo Desktop, or

b) pytivo
