Page 1 of Cracking a Philips 710 with the Palm 5x

I have tried to hack the Philips 710 using the Palm method. I`ve loaded the Omniremote software, the Omniphilips.pdb file.
I start up the Palm 5x, load the Remote application and I get the a screen displaying 1 button, dvd955 multizone.

And thats about it, is ther anything else thats need to to be done ? coz tapping that "multizone" button doesn`t seem to do a whole lot no matter how near or far I am from the DVD player

One more thing, (coz I need to understand the logic here) I thought the Omniremote software only worked if you trained it by teaching it from another remote> With the .pdb file, is that "training" no longer required ?

Any ideas ???? Greatly appreciated....!!!
