My PCF is largely taken from Daniel's great setup. It is an activity based PCF made for easy switching of devices. I used Button Maker to create one touch browsing and selection of the DVD's in my jukebox. My single DVD player is on codeset 1 and my jukebox is on codeset 3. I streamlined Daniel's work to suit my needs and make it easy for a novice (the wife, the babysitter, the in-laws, etc.) to operate and still allow complete control over my gear. TV stations have 1 touch logos divided by category. Thanks to all those who worked so hard and provided me with so many great tools to complete my setup.

A modified version of Daniel Tonks' brilliant TSU3000 configuration for a Marantz RC5400. I also borrowed from Adam Holt's setup.

This is an improved version of my first submission. I modified the clock size to make it larger and easier to read. All the buttons can be quickly accessed very easily. The macros have been improved, and there are some interesting bitmap/screen combinations.

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.

Plain and simple--it's (mainly) in black and white. Although the RU950/TSU3000 can display grayscales I was never really happy with them in point how they look on the RC itself (they DO look better in ProntoEdit, imho) and especially I wasn't happy with the visibility in a semi-dark or dark room (the backlighting doesn't help much, imho). So there are lots of prettier system files, but I did go primarily for usability. The system file is very dry and functional, no gimmicks whatsoever. The file itself is small too (about 100kb), so it will load fast to your Pronto, which is an advantage when playing around with updated versions. The majority of the pages will give you the possibilty of a direct jump to the other devices, which is another advantage in daily use. Please note that the labels are in semi German/English language as I am a German citizen. I don't think editing this should be a problem. So, It may not look as good as other but it's very functional.

This is a complete file for my Home Theater system. It is based on Daniel Tonks' wonderful design with some additions such as my hacked Blu-ray icon. For each device I have a hidden IR page which holds all the codes available for the device. There are some saved IR pages for devices not currently in use. I have to fake discrete codes for the Samsung DVD and Blu-ray even though the Samsung plasma has them - go figure.

A complete system setup for the following devices.

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.

I know that this is really closer to software than to an actual operating system, but I call this PCF SamOS. My approach was to use the hard buttons as a means for consistent navigation, making it easy for the user to get anywhere on the remote in no more than two button presses. I've created custom graphics to give each device its own personality and vibe. I've also made use of drop-down menus in a few sections. I hope you dig it.

Based on Daniel Tonks superb library. This file integrates Daniel's work into the ProntoEdit NG software which will save much work. Also includes contrast calibration and two levels of PIN protection 1: user (access to remote) and 2: admin (access to setup).
