I have been researching a remote for my home theater and am about 99% sure I am going to get the Pronto 2000. I have downloaded Prontoedit and looked at many ccf's. You guys do some pretty amazing things with this software.

Anyway my qustion. I noticed that some pple will list mutiple actions on some none macro panels thus creating a mini macro and some will alias to a button in the macro section with the sequence there. It seems to me that there is not alot of difference as to the end result of the sequence of actions. Other than just being a personal preference (and of course a programing consideration) is there any difference between listing several actions to one button or aliasing a macro with the same set of actions?

Thanks

first any button with more then one command in the action list is a macro. The reason one of the sides is called macro and the other device is that on the Pronto you can only create and edit macros on the macro side and learn or use the UDB on the device side. Like you said where you put the commands is a personal design issue. If part of a macro is used often, then it might be worth putting it on it's own (let's say there is a 2 or 3 step macro used as a work around for turning on your TV, it will probably be used for any entertainment on command, so why not just create it once), and other reason might be to make it easier to upgrade (current TV does not have discrete codes, but in the future when you will upgrade the equipment you might have discretes so you decide to create buttons called "DVD", "DSS"... so that you can use them later and they all contain the work arounds right now.
