In 1999, Philips released the first TiVo box ever available for purchase, the HDR110. The HDR110 contained a 13GB hard drive, same as the HDR110, which was released soon after, and replaced the HDR110. This TiVo can only be used as a "dumb DVR" or "digital VCR" after TiVo switched guide data providers from Gracenote to Rovi in September 2016. They released an update to Series 2 - 6 TiVos, but Series 1 TiVos did not receive that update.
Hardware
All of the Philips Series 1 units (even the Sony SVR-2000 and Thomson PVR10UK) use the same internal parts, including the same motherboard, hard drives, power supplies, etc. The Standalone Series 1 units all have the same specifications:
IBM PowerPC 403GCX running at 54 MHz
16MB of onboard RAM
Models
Philips released multiple different models between 1999 - 2001. These models do not differ in functionality, only in hard drive capacity and the front faceplate.
Model | Released | Hours/HDD Size | Notes | Image |
---|---|---|---|---|
HDR110 | 1999 | 13 GB = 13 hours | The first TiVo ever released. This design a oddly large TiVo in the middle (while also still having the smaller one in the bottom right corner) but otherwise looks similar to the later models. | |
HDR112 | Equivalent to the HDR110 with a different faceplate | |||
HDR212 | 2000 | 20 GB = 20 hours | Uses an all-black faceplate. | |
HDR312 | 30 GB = 30 hours | |||
HDR612 | 2001 | 60 GB = 60 hours | This was the last standalone TiVo Series 1 Philips released, it has an inverted faceplate and the highest capacity of any Series 1 TiVo from the factory. |
