Any suggestions on a reliable IR based touch screen customizable remote .... wifi works with all my other components but I need IR for the projector
PS --- Ivan before you suggest I'd prefer not buying a new projector - LOL

As an ex-Pronto user I feel you pain. You won’t get the level of functionality you had with a Harmony product.
I have learned to live with my Harmony Elite - it has a hub and a decent phone app.
However the Lutron integration and Hunter Douglas PowerView integration are buggy and tech support is unable to fix it.
I second Ivan’s suggestion.
Another hint - if you have to call tech support you are probably trying to do something the remote is just not capable of doing. The OS and workflows are so strict that if you deviate from them even a little bit you will be in the weeds.
If you can get the devices working correctly first you can then start to program activities. I found a lot of the McIntosh device libraries to be incorrect, so I had to do some code capture to get it right.
