Doesn't come with a program like Nevo. You have to buy one.

You cant sorry

pdawin is actually the best out there, i know there site looks cheap, but the software fully supports ccf skins that you can custom make or get from www.remotecentral.com. the CCF skins can be really nice looking and they are the same ones that the phillips pronto remotes use :approve:

PDAWin has been rated number one by most of the users around here, total remote is ok, but lacks some of the features, and ultraremote lacks a ton of the features.

Although their site looks cheap, it is one great piece of software :approve:

Hey, can you suggest a .ccf skin that's simple, but also allows flexibility?

I miss nevo...

NetRemote is also (CCF) Philips Pronto compliant.

And NetRemote is more complete!

Better yet, is there anyway to take the profiles from Nevo OFF, and put into another remote control program? I like the NUMEROUS items available in Nevo, as well as the interface... Simple, yet powerful....

If anyone is running these on your x50, what kind of useable range does the IR have for remote control use?

I use TotalRemote as well. I bought it at my University Bookstre with the IR extender (increases range to about 50 feet) for $15, and it supports .CCF files as well. You can get the skins from the site mentioned above, or you can go to http://www.pronto.philips.com/ to get the editor for the pronto remote and make your own CCF files.

The x50v gets about 15-20ft with the standard ir and my panasonic tv and sony dss system

if you want a nevo like ccf you can always take a screen shot of nevo on your ppc and then convert that to a skin with a ccf maker (phillips has a free one that works great :))

NetRemote works well, but i liked pdawin better in my comparision of the two

I have tried most of these programs, and i use netremote. Just works a lot better for me, and i get good range with my x3i to my audio/video equipment. At first i thought a remote on my axim would be kinda useless and more trouble then it's worth, but now i have my tv, surround, stereo, xm, and dvd/vca remote all in one device. works great!!!
