Several of my software programs required a patch from the manufacturer to work properly with Windows XP... Does anyone know if there are any issues with ProntoEdit 1.05 on XP???

Got it working on XP Pro no problems. In fact it crashes far less than it does under 2k and Win98SE.

Prontoedit works fine in XP but like all NT based OS's you can't learn IR codes from within Prontoedit (not that I recomned doing that anyway)

Is there likely to be a new version of pronto edit which does allow you to learn new IR's on XP ?

What is more likely is that Philips will remove the ability to learn from within ProntoEdit altogether.

I get a "ProntoEdit has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." message if I attempt to open ProntoEdit directly. However, if I double click a CCF file, ProntoEdit launches and all is well. Odd, but not a showstopper.

That's really weird. I suggest completely uninstalling then reinstalling ProntoEdit.

If there were no learning in ProntoEdit would there be any way to have learned buttons in macros?

Codes can be learned directly into the Pronto for any button while in "Learn" mode.....

You should not have learned buttons in macros - use aliases instead.

But if you wanted to, it would simply be a matter of learning into a button, then copying the code into the macro.

I'm running PE 2.0 on XP Pro. PE crashes every time I select SetIR in Button Properties (I don't want to learn a code, I need to define one (for an SR-18)). Anybody have same problem?
