I admit I am new to the 3000 and this kind of remotes but I learn fast :) Thanks to the help of this forum and the people that sent their pcf I have made a good starting point for my system. Thanks.
A couple (?) of questions:
1. Some mentioned the short life of the battery. I found that as well but I download 10 times a day as I am testing at the moment. What I found is bad is the unreliable battery indicator. Sometimes will show 2 bars, then after a bit and on a different page it will show 4 bars. This behaviour is also on the setup page. Anyone noticed this?
2. Has anyone done the screen calibration? Every time I try it, it accepts the top left but 9 out of 10 it fails on the bottom right hand.
3. What is the point of the far right hard button? I can’t believe that mighty Philips sold a product where one of the buttons does not work. !!!
4. I have a couple of problems learning the codes from some equipment: Tivo (UK) by Thompson – the standby button – something like on/off really Pioneer DVD 737 – the codes are extremely unresponsive – arrow keys take for ever to be recognised, and things like display that show different info every time you press it are hopeless. Sony AV Amp 930 – the soundfields codes: Dolby, Auto decode, 2 Ch, etc can be done.
I got ccf files from the forum with people that use this equipment but they don’t work with the NG. Any ideas from the gurus?
Some say that the Original Star Trek was better that the NG (I don’t think so personally) but I sincerely hope that the Pronto NG is not worse than the 1000 and 2000 units. (Especially as I got from the US and its very difficult to sent it back !!)
Thanks
