Tired of HDMI-CEC screwing up on my home theater set up. Looking for a universal remote that does not require a app to set up or me creating an account to set up the remote.

Also, cool using three remotes to change the devices/

KDE Connect allows your phone to become a remote for Windows and Linux PCs.

If your home theatre setup uses either OS and you own an Android phone then this could be a free potential alternative

Hope this helps!


Edit:

  • KDE Connect currently doesn't have the option to change video inputs
