Maybe you just have to add a B&O product on your configuration, and HIDE the menu item (ok, it will take a place on the screen, but normally you can survive with less than 12 items!

I will try that.

But I just made a misstake...

Went to the dealer and swapped the table charger to a wall mounted one, just to discover that it has no USB-connection. :(

So, where do I get a second beo5 charger cheap? Just need it for programing.

The first point to make is that you must add at least one B&O product to your configuration mainly because it then sets up a place for "Accessories" which you will need to add all your non B&O 3rd party products. I normally add a TV and then hide the buttons when in EDIT

If you are only going to control non B&O products, then each of those products will need to have its own XML file made for it. Because the B&O Configuration Tool limits you when it comes to macros with third party products, you should do all that within the product XML file, then its just drag-n-drop into the configuration in the B&O Tool.

These days you do need a licence to use the Lintronic software which can produce basic XML files using RAW encoding ONLY.

However, Pronto HEX codes can be converted and I would be happy to assist you in their conversion.

The 3rd party XML tool found on Beoworld takes Lintronic timing codes and converts to RAW encoding XML file. No hard keys or macros can be pre-assigned within this tool. Whilst, it would be useful as a means to learn more about the configuration and syntax of the XML files, it would also be quite a lot of work to provide a reverse facility.

There is really two core ways to find the IR codes to produce a 3rd party XML file:-

1. Capture the IR codes from the original remote
2. Find Pronto HEX codes on the web at such sites as remotecentral.com

Why not modify the XML and fooling the Beo-config tool that a Samsung TV is a Beo product? Any downside to that?

To bad Lintronic need registration. Maybe we should build a java applet that could convert? 

I found a different program yesterday that said it could convert Pronto Hex to RAW... not sure if its the same raw format BEO like.

It has some export functions...

Hi Keith.

Im a little ashame sending you this big xls chart with the codes.

Im scanning the hole internet for a converter so I can do this manual work my self.

It would be cool to have the converting tool built in your xml application!

Cheers!
