Replacing Prontos with......what?

[Output Flange]

I've got three Pronto 9600s that are slowly dying, and obviously they're no longer being made.

So, what are my options to replace them? I'm not looking at the Crestron end of the market.

It needs to control Sky boxes, and amp through RS232, an HD matrix by IR and it needs to link in to my Squeezebox setup.

Any thoughts chaps?

Are you looking to program yourself? I only ask as Pronto was easy with software openly available but most of the current brands require (at least initially) dealer setup.

Ideally, yes.

I'm surprised yours are reaching end of life

I'm having issues with touchscreens giving up, batteries needing replacing, buttons sticking etc etc. They're about 5 years old, and in truth they were never absolutely brilliant even when new.

The bit that seems to be missing here is the integration with the Squeezeboxes. At the moment one button turns on the multiroom amp (via RS232) and then loads the ProntoSqueeze interface on the remote. It'd be a shame to lose that.
