My second PCF for the TSU3000 is a unique file that features a futuristic interface, page "morphs" instead of "jumps", and even a friendly robot. It might make you feel like you are controlling something other than a home theater.
This is my first configuration. I did not use any graphical elements from the Daniel Tonks remote that I'm aware of. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice remote but I wanted to try to create something original. My graphics may look dark but they have to be to show up on the TSU3000 (i.e they're not that dark on the remote). Like many of the configurations here, I created a hidden page of codes for every device then linked the buttons to the code pages. I learned the codes for every button on every remote that pertained to the device regardless of whether or not I intended to use it in my design. I thought that if by chance I had a remote that someone was looking for that they might appreciate having the entire remote. Most of my devices have two or three GUI pages. At the top are tabs with devices related to each other. The white tab indicates the current page and the dark tabs are buttons to switch to the other devices. On the left side of each screen is a block of common buttons that carry over to each page. In the middle is a graphic that I created and what I would consider rather large, simple buttons that are easy for me to press. See the readme.txt file for more details.
This is an intuitive, activity-based system that is easy for anyone to use. Main screens are clean and simple with jumps to more technical screens for each device. Many ideas here from other systems used in different/unique ways and many, many buttons from Daniel (thanks!). Extensive use of hard buttons and full panel screens for maximum effect. Hope this gives you some ideas!
Special thanks to Daniel and Willy for the excellent graphics and DirecTV icons. This PCF file now contains dedicated IR Code pages for all devices and has been updated for the new version of ProntoEdit NG.
