According to the specs the Pronto can learn frequencies up to 56KHz while the Harman/Kardon Take Control should be able to learn up to 120KHz. Does this mean you can probably learn much more different kind of remotes?

It is my understanding that 99% of IR home theater devices are within the Pronto's learning range, save one or two high-end brands that use a 455KHz frequency. I'm not aware of anything between 56 and 120Khz specifically that you'd be missing.

It would be helpful if you had a page that listed various remote controls' IR frequency. That way, we can determine whether the universal remote we're considering would work with our equipment.
Recently, I've had a hard time with teaching my RC2000 Mk 1 the IR controls for X10 using the X10 IR receiver and the X10 6-in-1 remote.

Ivan, you said that you had a hard time teaching the Mk1 X-10 commands, were you able to teach the commands though?

I did manage to teach jimmy the RC2000 Mk 1 to learn all of the commands by "pulsing" the 6 in 1. The only problem is that the RC2000 will not "repeat" the IR command with the button held down, so the "dim/bright" functions are worthless.

I tried the X-10 stuff with two different Sony learning remotes, and they work without a problem. Aaaaaaarrrgh!
