The Voyager Company makes such XCMDs. They are available in their VideoStack
2.1 for $99.95. Their address is:

The Voyager Company
1351 Pacific Coast Highway
Santa Monica, CA 90401
(213)451-1383
Applelink: VOYAGER

Apple also has a set of XCMDs in their Visual Almanac Stack, but I don't know
about their availability or if the stack has been officially released yet.
The contact I have is:

Visual Almanac Project
20525 Mariani Ave. MS:27SF
Cupertino, CA 95014
Applelink: Vis.Almanac

Sorry, but I haven't worked with either one enough to know if they're easy
to use or not. Both apparently support the Pioneer LDV 6000.
