New Pronto Pro firmware brings Windows Media Centre 2-way integration

For those with Pronto Professionals (TSU9600) or those interested in
the device, Philips today released the latest firmware upgrades which
enable 2-way IP comms including a MCE interface to control music
selection from the Pronto.

I've set up the MCE bit (you need to pay 20 Euros for the server-side
software) and it's really impressive...a few minor things that irritate
like it doesn't list artist's albums, only artists tracks) but
hopefully they'll get fixed soon.

The 2-way IP stuff is more interesting for HA - should be possible to
use the Pronto Pro to control Homeseer, Slim Servers, etc....
