This PCF offers an extension to the crome buttons of the standard 7500 gallery. It includes chrome transport and chrome toggles, which are missing in the standard. A second set of buttons has a transparent HP-calculator-style, which is good to read and recognize.

I like chrome so most of the layouts are that. For the CD I used a copper layout. For the Tuner and DV Cam I used transparency. From the Home page, short transaction animations are used.

On the Devices page you will find more stuff including the VCR and the DV Cam. I like my 5.1 speaker balance page which you can get to from most devices by pressing the 4-speaker button. You just select the speaker you want to adjust and use the left or right arrow keys. If you click the "RECEIVER SETTINGS" button you'll get to a page where I was experimenting with nature buttons. Looks like it could use some cloud buttons!

This Pronto remote control configuration has a task-based user interface that maximizes ease of use for both casual and advanced users, while providing full access to all the audio/video devices' remote commands for complete end-user control. In addition to useful automated wizards and macros that turn on all the necessary devices and set their inputs and outputs accordingly based on what the user wishes to do, this remote has a number of useful features, including: a tab-based user interface for directly accessing the proper page of a remote device, user-friendly screens with progress bars for long running macros, an "activity" bar at the top of each page containing commonly used commands, extensive help text, a special page for allowing the Pronto's screen to be cleaned, and many more user-friendly features. Buttons are color-coded so that advanced use only functions are colored orange. This configuration is the TSU7000 colored version of the TSU3000 PCF I originally submitted in 2004, but has additional usability enhancements as well as support for significantly many more devices.

This is an original design, except for the TV station graphics, a couple of buttons, and a rework of sat numbering. Color coding for each device, especially usefull for the 3 TiVos. Includes NFL schedule for last year but can be easily changed. This design is activity based, but can be used as a device-based.

This is my PFC file for everyday control of a MythTV system. It contains a full implementation of the Soundgraph iMON-Pad controller which is bundled with many Silverstore HTPC cases. It does not implement the full analog pad controls, Just Up, Down, Left and Right, but that should be enough unless you are using the pad for mouse controls.

This thread discusses the iMon command file creation. Thanks to all on this site who helped me during it's development. The JoyTech Trilink HDMI Switch commands are also my own.. not a great deal of effort involved in that :) . Everything else was downloaded from here. Many thanks to all you uploaders!

I still have a few things to add to this but it is working pretty well at the moment. You can get to extra functions by pressing the Vista button at the top. The whole layout is sort of a Media Centre/Vista Media Centre hybrid. I find that the main screen in Vista too cluttered. All the buttons and transport controls have been drawn by hand. Hope you like it!

I really like the simplicity of the TSU9600's design, so I've basically ported it to the TSU7000. This includes new battery icons, sending signal and pages. I've also used Daniel T's help page. I think it passes the babysitter test for ease-of-use!

First of all, a big thank you to Mike Ventimiglia's and his 'Envision' which was the inspiration for my first Pronto NG setup. I however had to start from scratch for backgrounds and menu buttons so I could customise everything for my equipment (Sky+ etc). In keeping with a simple layout I don't think I need to explain how this setup works, if I needed to do that the remote would be too hard to operate I feel. Plus I think you'll enjoy exploring the menus yourselves. I have designed everything so you can never really get 'lost'. Some of the features though, include: 1) Colour coded backgrounds for each area so you know where you are at a glance. 2) All devices can be fully operated from one screen. 3) Over 20 custom made 'menu' buttons each with a pressed and released state. 4) Very clear and intuative layout making it easy for anyone to operate and reduce the chance of getting lost. 5) A nice little animation of sorts as the system is turned on and off. There are a couple of things I have not finished yet. If anyone would like a photoshop psd file of the master menu button or background so you can quickly make your own changes to suit your equipment (replace pictures of my amp/plasma etc with ones of your own) then please feel free to email me.

Version 4.01 This is an update of my previous version. I have added a few more channel icons and XM radio icons for DirecTV. A blending of Daniel Tonks' and Lowpro's PCFs for the TSU7000. Changes include additional TV logos including logos for the SF Bay Area local stations, and a slightly different DVD category list.

This is my first PCF design for the TSU7000. I created this design to accommodate my 6 year old son and my wife. Like most, she doesn't want to learn about all the equipment. As she says, "Just make it work."

The design is simple to use and is based on our most frequently used activities. These icons are on almost all pages, DirecTV, TiVo and HDTV icons. Since some of the equipment, like the Yamaha, is new to me, I'll be adding functionality over time. Most pages have a browse back button, even though one is hard coded. Easy access to guides and info. A complete collection of CD cover art provides direct access to any CD. TiVo is used frequently. Buttons are built from stock Liatro buttons.

Thanks to Daniel and all the Remote Central forum members and their designs. I borrowed from everyone. Special thanks to Dave D'Arche for the Pronto Wizard Guide. It saved me many hours and he was extremely helpful with my email questions.
