I will definitely figure out how to run this makehex program to convert codes, but I wonder if this can be simplified. I am looking for the exact same discreet codes for the Philips TV, I wish he would have posted his results and contributed back..

My question is, what is the actual process to conver these short hex Pronto codes to long ones? I don't mind writing a little GUI based program that would just allow you to paste a short and hit a button to encode to long. Maybe it isn't that easy though?

Even if the tool only works with the MX series by converting Pronto codes, it seems like this utility would help some people. Who knows, I just looked at the Makehex and it was pretty extensive.. I guess I could even build a little ASP.NET web page to dynamically convert codes.. You seem to be knowledgable on this conversion, does this sound useful or I am missing something?

Thanks!
