Dave,

I have taken your XML file and modified it so that all the hard keys including the digits are pre-assigned.

You can download the modified XML HERE for testing

Here a first XML version. The hard keys of the Beo5 are in this configuration without function.

No, Decimal.

The Beo5 uses Hex for all values except these.

If this section for the hex codes?

Dave:
I copied the code 014000012000000024 into a power.txt file and have it converted to xml file. It has not worked with beo5. I will now look for a better file, Philips Pronto HEX file

Copying the string into a power.txt file will never work with the XML Generator because the generator is expecting Lintronic timing codes as per the help file.

It is common for Philips to use a device code of "0" for their products and the common command codes are:-

0 = 0
1 = 1
2 = 2
3 = 3
4 = 4
5 = 5
6 = 6
7 = 7
8 = 8
9 = 9
10 = EPG
11 =
12 = Power
13 = Mute
14 =
15 =
16 = Volume +
17 = Volume -
18 = Brightness +
19 = Brightness -
20 =
21 =
22 =
23 =
24 =
25 =
26 =
27 =
28 =
29 =
30 =
31 =
32 = Program +
33 = Program -

I do not have an XML file for the Philips DVDR 725H and because Philips do not manuafacturer all their own products, many are OEM'ed, its difficult to guess what protocol it uses. However if you look at the Lintronic web site HERE where they list the 726 it shows that it could be either an RC5 or RC6 protocol assuming the 726 uses the same remote as the 725H. If it is RC5 then you could just enter the codes for each command into the Beoworld XML Generator and give it a try. The command codes shown on the Lintronic site are shown in decimal, not Hex

Your other options are:-

Capture the codes from your existing remote and either make an XML file with the Beoworld XML Generator yourself or get it made for you.
Find on the web Philips Pronto HEX file (not ccf files) for the product which can then be converted to an XML file.
