• Enter Webz the world's first web browser for the TiVo DVR

  ... includes several apps and games

Games:

• TiVo Solitaire and FreeCell!

  Uses/can use the below Multitasker architecture to do a news ticker, background images?, and audio feeds. Programmers: it uses my headless solitaire game core you can use for other projects.
• Mahjongg - created by Gene Wadleigh (this site has it archived and hasn't responded to my request to re-open it or let me take it over), I just updated it so it functions and makes some sense in the current SDK.

• Crossword - in progress - works but needs better puzzle source handling (and need to check on permission for some of it) and really needs to take advantage of HD when available.

Other Applications:

• Map - Browse Google Maps from your TiVo - uses my auto-completing keyboard ("TyPo for TiVo") to enter specific locations.

  ...Download GoogleMaps.zip

• Calendar - view calendars via .ics files or Urls (I.e. your Google Calendars!).

  ...Download Calendar.zip

• MultiSlideshow - just the below MultiTasker architecture's sample application - play music and slideshow from a variety of sources optionally with e.g. a news ticker running across the bottom (and/or captions for music and pictures in the ticker, and a list of what is currently recording on your TiVo).

• URLMenu - quick and dirty menu based on a properties file that executes URLs from that properties file - by request in support of a user's existing home automation system that accepts url requests.

  ...Download URLMenu.zip

• Just for fun... "NowPlaying" ... use streaming feature of newer TiVos to watch videos from your computer or other TiVos without actually downloading them to the current TiVo... even cooler, allows you to run any other available application while the videos are playing (via the info popup). Only really works for non-HD content unless you have a really fast home network.

• TiVo Shopper - manage shopping and other lists for SplashShopper
  Useful for in-TiVo lists even if you don't have SplashShopper for your Palm device.
  
• ShowFile - very simple use of the below File Chooser and Help screens. Save a file to disk and show it on your TV (e.g. Recipes)

Libraries: (most can be found in one or more of the above zips)

• MultiTaskerApplication Architecture - a multitasker environment to control configurable music/podcasts, background images, scrolling tickertape (news feed across bottom of screen), eventually even alarm/event popups and a scrolling console text for e.g. a chat area. Build your app to use those features or just let the user-configured features run while they use your main app.
• Components for TiVo programmers! (Bananas UI Toolkit based)
  Gadgets (built out of widgets)-
  • simple Help Screen - display some text with paging (ch up/down) and font size selection (ff/rw);
  • StringGetterScreen - make your string entry have a secondary screen for the keyboard (uses the below TyPo for TiVo auto-completing keyboard QuickKeyboard actually);
  • NumberGetterScreen - same thing using my NumberEntry widget.
  • File Chooser screen/list - explores filesystem of local computer to get a file/folder path.
  • ColorChooser Screen - meant especially for "Color" type preferences in MultiTaskerPreferences.
  
  Widgets -
  • TyPo for TiVo - another keyboard idea, this one is auto-completing. Available in the widgetsGadgets jar.
  • QuickKeyboard (qk subpackage) - much better way to do a keyboard, IMO, only 2 button presses per letter usually. Has many handler options including a phone-like textmessaging keyboard, and a enter-the-number-for-the-alphabet-letter keyboard (01=a, 26=z), numbers for directions (including diagonal)... totally expandable. Uses the Remote images.
  • NumberEntry - only uses remote number buttons (and rec for decimal);
  • Choice - a single-select type of widget [handle Select key to go to StringGetterScreen to add to the list!];
  • GenericList - a BList that is even easier to work with (just uses the toString of your objects);
• Constants - everybody ends up doing this - mine is the interface class "TiVo" and holds constants for system sounds and fonts.
• HMO Client classes - JavaHMO has classes to be an HMO SERVER, but I haven't found any Java to be a CLIENT so we can read data from the TiVo in a structured way - so far works well enough for me to get what I wanted: info on what is currently recording on the TiVo (for a TickerTape in MultiTasker).
