Matt Bennett's First Setup From: Matt Bennett For: Philips Pronto NG | An update to David Shaw's Midnite PCF. The buttons are mostly from his PCF. I have included additional buttons for my devices, and included a bunch of DVD covers for my DVD jukebox. All devices have discrete power. I have also setup this PCF to use PIP with both my satellite and cable connections.

Matt Bennett's Second Setup From: Matt Bennett For: Philips Pronto NG | Building upon Daniel Tonks' graphics and overall design, with some design elements from David Shaw (a few graphics) and Jon Linville (his clean screen program is effective, as well as his pre-made DVD macros which I used for my DVD changer). I have made the PCF very user - and wife - friendly, and easy to code with a dedicated section for IR codes and macros.

Melinda's OSX PCF From: Melinda For: Philips Pronto NG | This clean and simple design was based mainly on "OS X" graphics, device images from "Daniel's TSU3000" together with some of my own images. System begins on the "power" page where you can turn on/off TV, home theater (DVD) & cable with one button, go the the "lighting" page or go the specific device power controls. Across each page are shortcuts to "power", "DVD", "cable", "TV", "lights", "surf" and "activities". "Surf" includes 9 pages classifying channels into favorites, nets, learn, fun, news, sports and music.

Michael Burwen's Custom TSU3000 From: Michael Burwen For: Philips Pronto NG | This is a revision of my previously submitted file. It makes better use of graphic icons for buttons and cleans up some inconsistencies in my previous upload. The principal design objective here was to make the screen as legible as possible given the rather dim nature of the TSU3000. I have been testing various screen icons and layouts on several people and feel that older users find it easier to use this schema than the more elegant 3D designs. Another objective was to make use the hard buttons: the row of buttons under the screen is used exclusively for navigating between screens.

Michael Griffith's Pronto From: Michael Griffith For: Philips Pronto NG | This is my first configuration. I did not use any graphical elements from the Daniel Tonks remote that I'm aware of. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice remote but I wanted to try to create something original. My graphics may look dark but they have to be to show up on the TSU3000 (i.e they're not that dark on the remote). Like many of the configurations here, I created a hidden page of codes for every device then linked the buttons to the code pages. I learned the codes for every button on every remote that pertained to the device regardless of whether or not I intended to use it in my design. I thought that if by chance I had a remote that someone was looking for that they might appreciate having the entire remote. Most of my devices have two or three GUI pages. At the top are tabs with devices related to each other. The white tab indicates the current page and the dark tabs are buttons to switch to the other devices. On the left side of each screen is a block of common buttons that carry over to each page. In the middle is a graphic that I created and what I would consider rather large, simple buttons that are easy for me to press. See the readme.txt file for more details.

Mike Ewing's Layout From: Mike Ewing For: Philips Pronto NG | This configuration is almost completely based on the pioneering work of Mr. Tonks -- thank you. It does, however, contain a couple new twists (and, of course my devices). It includes an activites based approach for the non-initiated (grandma, babysitters) and a device based interface for others. Both interfaces can be used interchangably, and take full advantage of the hard buttons. I've tried to keep it simple by limiting each activity and each device to only one page of the key buttons, which I've found to be effective for about 99% of the collective functionality of 6+ remotes.

Mike Florence's TSU3000 From: Mike Florence For: Philips Pronto NG | I have finally produced what I think is great design. Logical layout for the programmer with seperate screens for IR codes and user functions. Simply navigation for the family with the hard keys tied to most used features and bottom buttons for home and FIX buttons that toggle video and audio inputs/outputs. Nice graphics (with a little help from guistuff) that really use the full palette available.

Nick Allen's Simple PCF From: Nick Allen For: Philips Pronto NG | This is an original system PCF, designed to be extremely simple to use. I have found that while looking awesome, a lot of the configuration files are difficult to operate. It doesn't look fancy, but it works. Not all codes are on here, again as I wanted a simple program. The bitmaps I have used are simple too, therefore my complete file is only 23k which means it is quick in operation. Macros work from the home page to switch products on without having to go through power up processes.

Nitro Press' System Layout From: Nitro Press For: Philips Pronto NG | System PCF with separate component-control and user-mode page groups. Includes ON and OFF macro buttons and detailed help pages with startup buttons in sequence. Complete controls for all items, VERY extensive controls for Denon 2105 and Sony 985! Created using Daniel's icons, Paul Friedlander's IR Code Generator (for the Denon stuff), and forum help - thanks, all! NOTE: All components except the PTV are RF-enabled, and nearly all component-page buttons include short delays to help avoid RFX-6000 lockups. IR-only users will want to modify these items.

Orlando's First System PCF From: Orlando Gonzalez Jr. For: Philips Pronto NG | Nothing all that new as far as design for guys around here. Mostly useful for the IR codes I put together for a few different models people keep asking about but can't seem to find.

Paul's Onkyo System From: Paul Davis For: Marantz RC5400 | Nothing special about this, had to set it up for my dad, so depressingly simple layout.

Paul Gere's Setup From: Paul Gere For: Philips Pronto NG | This is an intuitive, activity-based system that is easy for anyone to use. Main screens are clean and simple with jumps to more technical screens for each device. Many ideas here from other systems used in different/unique ways and many, many buttons from Daniel (thanks!). Extensive use of hard buttons and full panel screens for maximum effect. Hope this gives you some ideas!

Paul's IQ2 System From: Paul Jamieson For: Marantz RC5400 | I'm quite pleased with the outcome we acheived for our customer, who had just upgraded to the new Foxtel IQ2 HD receiver. Using a combination of old Pace commands and pasting HEX from our RTI library, we have acheived most commands for the Foxtel with no issues of multiple codes being sent. Sorry about the basic layout but we were trying to make an easy to use remote for the customer. Hope it helps!

Peter A. Kemmer's Custom Design From: Peter A. Kemmer For: Philips Pronto NG | Presenting the HD DirecTV TiVo edition of my Pronto NG PCF! With each new release I've put a ton of attention into making it simpler to navigate, easier to read, and harder to goof up. Even people with large fingers should find the clearely labeled, large, but spaciously arranged buttons to their liking. Quickly change source, navigate to any device, or rotate through a device's pages using the newly redesigned title bar, now with a pop-up menu that should have been in there from the beginning! Toss in task-based macros (with progress bars for the long ones} and you have an efficient system that's a real no brainer to use. Includes all the raw bitmaps and Photoshop source files.

Peter Edwards' System Layout From: Peter Edwards For: Philips Pronto NG | Look and graphics very heavily derived from Daniel's TSU3000 v1.02 (thanks!), but I thought the device codes would be useful to someone. Includes device pages, activity pages, system power control and multiple rooms. Includes extensive coding for J. River MediaCentre v10, Girder and others.

Rainer's Setup From: Rainer For: Philips Pronto NG | This is my RU950. The buttons and backgrounds are not special, but there are other things that make this setup intresting. The Code for the Pinnacle ShowCenter 200 for example is a reimport form a Logitech Harmony, so the cursor buttons are work pretty well.
