According to Apple.com, here is what was updated:

Genius playlists-To create a Genius playlist based on the currently playing song, press and hold Play/Pause to bring up the contextual menu and select Start Genius. Note: The Genius feature must first be enabled in iTunes 8.0.1 and synced with Apple TV.

On-The-Go playlists-To add the currently playing song to the On-The-Go playlist, press and hold Play/Pause to bring up the contextual menu and select Add To On-The-Go.

Music videos in playlists-Make playlists in iTunes combining your favorite music videos and songs. Play them back on Apple TV and let them play continuously.

Apple TV standby mode-From the main menu, press Play/Pause for about three seconds (or go to Settings > Standby)
