Was looking at the 3 device RCA below. I like the Siri Remote but need input function and don’t want to give up my mute button to remap it for that. Can live without Siri (can use my iPhone) so seeing what the best option is out there, and if anyone personally uses this RCA remote.

    If HomeKit sees your TV and / or AVR, you can use it to change the inputs, I believe. Hold the button above the volume control on the Siri Remote.

    Any remote will work fine on Apple TV. I just use my TV Sony remote. I assume you need universal to control other stuff. The other stuff will have more complex demands than the hand full of buttons ATV needs.

    The real performance depends wildly on your network and other devices you need to control… but Ive been using the Sofabaton X1 since the kickstarter and it’s great. I have a Samsung TV, Marantz receiver and an Apple TV. It all works perfectly. YMMV, as I said… but the elegance of the remote and ability to create an activity that sets everything up is pretty cool. (My Harmony bit the dust, and replacements were expensive, so this is a good fit for me.)
