I have an old iPAQ (3630) that isn't being put to use so I figured I would purchase TVRemote 5.1 and use it as a home theatre control. I was able to figure out how to edit .ccf's in ProntoEdit4 and how to transfer them to my iPAQ. Where I am having trouble is programming the specific IR to control my devices. I know you select Set IR in the properties for a device but when you choose a Device from the drop down and then the Brand, there are sometimes 10 or 12 choices of Code Set for that brand. For example, I want to set up a favorites Panel for my new Philips DirecTV/TiVo unit (DSR700r). First, I don't see TiVo or Sat as a Device in the drop down so I chose DBS. I then select Philips and find there are 12 choices under Code Set (i.e. Philips 1, Philips 2, etc.) Other than by process of elimination, how can I figure out which code set will work with my system? The same goes for my Sony TV, Nak Tuner, etc. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Why don't you just learn the button from your original remote?
Other possibility: search pronto&marantz file section in this site and search for a ccf for your device (they are listed by brand , type etc...) Once you find your model (or similar, as the IR codes often remain the same between similar models within the same brand) just download. then merge the ccf with your own ccf file (open your file first!!!!!!!!!!) Now you can take the IR codes and copy paste them into your buttons. Once done you delet whatever parts of the merged file you don't need anymore. As you see learning is easier! good luck buxe
