If someone asked you what you wanted in the perfect remote control design for your Universal MX-3000, what would you ask for? How about a remote so intuitive that the babysitter or even your good old grandmother could use it? Wait a minute though, maybe you dont want to sacrifice any control for your state of the art equipment. Of course you would want the coolest looking graphics and buttons that aren't intimidating right? How about some animations you had never seen before (besides the bazillion dollar touchscreen on cribs) or even sounds that actually serve a purpose like keypad buttons that actually tell you what you're pushing while you watch the monitor. What about going a step further and have a pleasant female voice tell you which favorites you've selected by saying the name of the channel? Dont forget the little details. Would you want a remote that didn't have a bunch of tiny buttons that you cant press without the stylus from your PDA?

Wow! That seems like a lot to ask for in a single configuration right? Not any more, this is the perfect remote control configuration for you. Who knows, you may even get the wife... (more)

This design has a very simple concept that centralizes around an animated 3D disc that serves many different purposes in this layout. All graphics and animations are completely original, however the channel icon buttons are alterations of existing available graphics. Thanks Much!

Bigblue is a totally original RCC file. All buttons and backgrounds were designed using the most basic of tools, ZPaint and Paint. It was designed to be used intuitively by anyone picking it up with no prior experience of unifying remote controls or the system being controlled. Where possible symbols have been used instead of words. This RCC has passed both the baby sitter and mother-in-law tests with flying colours! Lighting control is available from all pages.

I really wanted to enter this .rcc to demonstrate to people how you can create moving animation to a degree. It's creative in mixing video with audio to try and recreate a mini-movie while a macro is being performed.

This file does not have any programming done, it is just a template. Enjoy.

A custom MX-3000 design for one of our customers. It includes 54 favorite channel graphics, TiVo button graphics, and a few source graphics (Tivo, CD, DVD, Radio, Satellite, VCR). All of the buttons were designed and customized in Photoshop. I've put the full 96 favorite channel bitmap files, along will all of the other buttons in the "graphics" section of Remote Central.

This is a movie themed remote. It features over 60 different movie posters, most of which have sound clips from the movie. It's setup with a tutorial for new users.

This is an activity based design that walks the user through each step of the home theater process. The welcome screen triggers a series of animations and IR commands which is intended to entertain the user as the system powers up. The power codes in this particular system are all discrete. Once the "choices" screen appears, the user simply follows the directions. I have included a short photo album as a choice to show off the resolution of this screen. Components include a TV, DVD, XM radio (complete with my original icon frames), Satellite TV and Music Choice (also original Icon frames), VCR, CD, and Lutron lighting control. Many of the buttons will become animated when pressed. All buttons and animations are original with the exception of Beavis rocking out on the amp control page. Thanks and... Enjoy!

Includes a "basic" version for older 32mb units.
