Has anyone figured out a way to import custom PNG files to the MX-1200 ? Whn you click on "Import" it seems like your locked in the the VFD file and can't browse outside it like you could with the MX-980. I also tried using the VFD tool someone made and although I can create the custom file, CCP doesn't seem to like it.

You can just dump the PNG into the appropriate folder in the Install file. For instance:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Universal Remote Control, Inc\Complete Control Program\MX-1200\Images.

You can even make folders as long as you follow the protocol. I don't think you can have more than 3 layers of folder (ie 2 nested folders). Seemed to work for me. The 1200 seems to source files from this directory as opposed to saving them within the memory of the save file itself, so if you work across multiple computers like I do, you'll have to exactly duplicate your folder structuring in order to make your files work across platforms. Make sense?
