Can anyone help with this problem :
I have the following components :
1. Beyondtv software on my computer
2. USB-UIRT
3. Phillips Pronto 3000 remote
4. Satelite receiver
5. Yamaha amp.
6. Toshiba DVD player
I have trained the Pronto to run all of the components (except the Beyondtv software) and would like to be able to use the Pronto to run the Beyondtv program (so I don't have to use a mouse and keyboard to run Beyondtv). I know that Snapstream sells the Firefly remote to run the Beyondtv program. I understand that the Firefly remote transmits RF signals (rather than IR signals). If it transmitted IR signals I could train the Pronto with the Firefly. Does someone have a Firefly remote and can you convert the RF code signals for each of the buttons to an IR code (that I could then cut and paste into the software that comes with the Pronto)?
Alternatively, the Pronto can learn RF signals, but I'm just not sure if it can learn the RF signals put out by the Firefly remote. Again, as anyone tried or done this?
Any assistance would be much appreciated.

Use the streamzap remote - it'll also control that software and is IR which can be learned into the pronto. Going forward, you'd be better off posting this in the Pronto NG forum.
