MythTV HTPC Control using iMON-Pad From: Richard Brady For: Philips ProntoPro NG | This is my PFC file for everyday control of a MythTV system. It contains a full implementation of the Soundgraph iMON-Pad controller which is bundled with many Silverstore HTPC cases. It does not implement the full analog pad controls, Just Up, Down, Left and Right, but that should be enough unless you are using the pad for mouse controls. This thread discusses the iMon command file creation. Thanks to all on this site who helped me during it's development. The JoyTech Trilink HDMI Switch commands are also my own.. not a great deal of effort involved in that :) . Everything else was downloaded from here. Many thanks to all you uploaders!

Richard's Vista MCE Pronto From: Richard Deakin For: Philips ProntoPro NG | I still have a few things to add to this but it is working pretty well at the moment. You can get to extra functions by pressing the Vista button at the top. The whole layout is sort of a Media Centre/Vista Media Centre hybrid. I find that the main screen in Vista too cluttered. All the buttons and transport controls have been drawn by hand. Hope you like it!

Richard's TSU9600 on TSU7000 From: Richard McLane For: Philips ProntoPro NG | I really like the simplicity of the TSU9600's design, so I've basically ported it to the TSU7000. This includes new battery icons, sending signal and pages. I've also used Daniel T's help page. I think it passes the babysitter test for ease-of-use!

Richard Peters' ProntoPro NG From: Richard Peters For: Philips ProntoPro NG | First of all, a big thank you to Mike Ventimiglia's and his 'Envision' which was the inspiration for my first Pronto NG setup. I however had to start from scratch for backgrounds and menu buttons so I could customise everything for my equipment (Sky+ etc). In keeping with a simple layout I don't think I need to explain how this setup works, if I needed to do that the remote would be too hard to operate I feel. Plus I think you'll enjoy exploring the menus yourselves. I have designed everything so you can never really get 'lost'. Some of the features though, include: 1) Colour coded backgrounds for each area so you know where you are at a glance. 2) All devices can be fully operated from one screen. 3) Over 20 custom made 'menu' buttons each with a pressed and released state. 4) Very clear and intuative layout making it easy for anyone to operate and reduce the chance of getting lost. 5) A nice little animation of sorts as the system is turned on and off. There are a couple of things I have not finished yet. If anyone would like a photoshop psd file of the master menu button or background so you can quickly make your own changes to suit your equipment (replace pictures of my amp/plasma etc with ones of your own) then please feel free to email me.

Ryan Wright's System Setup From: Ryan Wright For: Philips ProntoPro NG | First, a special thanks to Andre' du Frense for the exceptional graphics in Retro Gold and Unimod as well as Scott Harris for the DirecTV channel Logos.

Scott Grimes' System PCF From: Scott Grimes For: Marantz RC9500 | Version 4.1 All of the graphics have been completely redone again – this time I managed to give them a glass-like look. The transport buttons are based on Mike Ventimiglia’s ‘Envision’ design, however, they have also been redone from scratch and given a glass-like appearance. The icons at the top of each device are loosely based on John Sollecito’s design. I even designed a new battery icon which turned out quite nicely. I am an avid SCUBA diver and so the background pictures are themed after this. I have included the original generic background pictures if you wish to use them instead. I completely overhauled the underlying layout of the configuration file and moved the IR codes sections out from each of the devices. The reason I did this was to better access these hidden sections from the remote itself. There is, however, an access code required to enter the macros and IR codes area. It is set as “1, 2, 3, 4, Enter” and can easily be changed to whatever you wish. You can access this area by pressing the “setup” icon an then choosing the “IR Codes & Macros” button. This time I am made a modified version of my PCF file for those with the Pronto version of these excellent remotes. However, in both cases, I have only included the devices that are in my own personal system. There is a gallery.pcf file that has some additional layouts for other devices as well as some other buttons (i.e., macro buttons, surround, IR signal and battery icons, etc). Again, I have included all the original Adobe Photoshop templates for all buttons, text frames and dialog boxes so that you can easily create new ones based on this design. The satellite television section has graphical one-touch buttons to their favorite channels. There are also sections to directly access the Satellite radio stations via one-touch buttons as well. I have also included a Rolodex – for important phone numbers, a Clean the Remote section – that will allow you to clean the surface of the touch screen without sending off any IR commands and finally a Helpscreen – which explains the functions for each of the icons at the top of the device sections. When executing macros (turning the system on, switching between devices or power the system down), a screen will appear giving you a visual cue as to the progress of the task being completed. Each device section of the remote has a series of buttons at the top of the screen that will: 1) turn the entire system off, 2) access power for all devices in the system, 3) switch to another device, 4) access the display options (if appropriate), 5) access the audio options, and finally 6) the help section. If you have lighting control in your system, you can substitute the help icon for the lighting control icon (available in the gallery file). The Home page will allow you to: 1) power the entire system down, 2) access power for all devices in the system, 3) access the information page – battery level, memory and firmware version, 4) The remote setup page – change clock, screen and button ‘on’ times, 5) direct access to each device – without sending any IR codes and finally 6) the help page. Note: I have played round with version 2 of the Wizzit.9 software that Marantz has finally made available. It pretty much has all the same capabilities and feel as the current version of the ProntoPro NG software. The new firmware does open up the rest of the memory available for the remote. However, I noticed it made the remote extremely sluggish in it’s response to soft-keys being pressed. I therefore reinstalled the older firmware. Hopefully they will fix this issue in a future upgrade – if they ever get around to it.

Scott Slater's XP Styled Layout From: Scott Slater For: Philips ProntoPro NG | This design uses an XP theme with a Start menu to assist in transitioning to different activities. All On and All Off buttons are always available.

Scott Wolcott's TSU7000 From: Scott R. Wolcott For: Philips ProntoPro NG | I have replaced my ProntoNEO with a TSU-7000 and have added considerably to the code pages. I have included all the codes I could find for all the devices. The layout is nothing fancy, I spent more time on the codes and unseen aspects and I am submitting this more for the codes than the layout. I want to thank all the people for the files I have used to make my file. Especially the TiVo buttons! Includes an Excel sheet with all hex codes.

Stephen R. D'Angelo's Playroom From: Stephen R. D'Angelo For: Philips ProntoPro NG | I made alot of this PCF with button maker and pieces of other PCFs I found here on RC. Thanks to all of the people I borrowed graphics from. I tried to make a file that was easy to see and easy to use.I renamed HOME to PUSH ME and only put one button on the system page so if the remote reboots the only thing you see is PUSH ME and that takes you to the Welcome screen. I also made sure every component supports discrete on and off. I use the far right hard button for OFF so no matter where you are its easy to turn off the system. I would appreciate any comments!
