Back to the op's question, the site was founded to share knowledge about remote controls, IR codes, and setups.

Plenty of people (including CI's) will help you if you have reasonable questions.

You might even find someone to train you in use of the s/w via the board for a fee.

But you shouldn't hop in to it unless you're willing to invest the time, and any experience you may already have with setting up programmable remote controls, or other programmable interfaces would be a big help.

IMO, the MX-900 is a lot easier to configure, and runs for months on a set of rechargeable batteries. The lack of a fancy graphic display is in many ways a bonus - and you won't be looking at the display so much once your fingers learn where to click.
