EDIT:

Since posting this I have been inspired to improve my setup and this is how it currently looks.

I took the screenshots on a phone this time because that is the main way I will be using the remotes.

The first screenshot is of the remote in the off state. It shows a simplified view just displaying the Harmony Activities.

Then when you select an activity the input selector Media Mode changes to display the correct remote menus, like this simple one for the Chromecast.

This just shows the volume control and Chromecast controls.

A similar setup is used for the Listen to Music Activity. A few chromecast audios are used one connected to the AVR and the others connected to always on speakers in different rooms. This setup is slightly different and allows the user to play a set of 6 playlists to the Chromecast Audio Group. This is done with the SpotCast custom component and Scripts.

The DVD and VCR remotes are also fairly straightforward giving the user control over the basic player functions through the Harmony commands.

The last setup is the most complicated because of the number of buttons needed to operate the AT&T box. For this I use a second input selector to change between the the different remote modes:

Here is a link to the yaml:

Also the Kodi remote is not shown because it is currently not in use but will probably look similar to the AT&T TV remote setup.

Currently I just use the mini media player with buttons that execute Harmony remote scripts. While currently simple I have the scripts already made for any Harmony function, but I need to be inspired as you mentioned in the op

Hello everyone, I recently installed Home Assistant via docker on my QNAP NAS. I have been wanting to upgrade my home theater remote for some time, and now would like to get one that plays nicely with HASS.

My home theater consists of an Onkyo receiver (running 7.1 speakers), an LG OLED TV and a Windows 10 HTPC for Kodi and playing games. I also have an Nvidia Shield for occasional Netflix, but mainly consume content via my own Jellyfin server (also running on the NAS).

Currently, I have a Logitech Harmony One remote, which only does IR, which works great with the Onkyo and TV. I have a Flirc on the Shield and was considering getting another one for the HTPC, but would rather control it via Bluetooth of Wi-Fi.

My smart home consists of a shitload of Philips Hue lights throughout the house (I also use them as ambilight for the tv) and Honeywell Evohome thermostats in four rooms. They have been connected to HASS. I have no concrete plans to add more, but more will definitely be added in the future.

I definitely want a physical remote to control my entire home theater, and love the Activity option of the Harmony. I was thinking of buying the Logitech Harmony Elite, so I can use the hub and remote to control my home theater.

Would it be convenient and feasible to connect my home theater to Home Assistant, and run it from there? Maybe I should start with that, and then add a remote that integrates nicely. Or would that make things unneccesarily complicated?

Question. Not sure if anyone knows this. What I love about the Harmony is that the remote is RF and can talk to the hub hidden inside of a cabinet with my stereo equipment. I believe the YIO is IR only, but I see it ships with and RF extender. How would the extender work? Would it have some kind of receiver that sits outside of my cabinet, with a physical wire then going into the cabinet with blasters on the inside?

If you have a handful of remotes you regularly juggle, and you have a smartphone, then the SofaBaton U2 is the best way to tame them. The SofaBaton U2 picks up the mantle left by the Logitech Harmony remotes, pairing simple programming with excellent ease of use. While the more-expensive Logitech 665 offers more power -- including the ability to program more sophisticated macros or "activities" -- the SofaBaton is the best universal remote for most people. Also note that you can save a few bucks by activating the instant coupon on the product page. 

Logitech Harmony wrote the book on universal remote controls, and this remote is still very good despite being discontinued. The main appeal over cheaper universal remotes, including the SofaBaton U2, is activity-based control. Press "Watch TV," "Play Game" or "Listen to Music" and the Logitech Harmony turns on all the relevant devices, switches to the right inputs and maps the keys to that activity (volume to the receiver and channel up-down to the cable box, for example).

The coolest feature of the Voice Remote Pro is the voice-activated remote finder. Just say "Hey Roku, find my remote" and it will beep from among the couch cushions (or wherever you left it). The Pro also has a headphone jack for private listening and works with Roku's voice system.

Much like the Roku Voice Remote Pro, the Fire TV version is designed to work with Fire TV streaming devices, allowing control of connected TVs' volume, power and mute functions. It's not actually universal, aside from the fact that it controls most brands of TV. We didn't like the Fire TV's remote finder function as much -- it requires a separate Alexa device to work -- but otherwise the two are very similar.

The wacky Cube is a mashup of universal remote controls, the Fire TV 4K streamer and Amazon Echo speaker, making it the king of your smart home. It comes with a device, but its buttons are sparse and rudimentary; real device control happens via your voice. The Cube has an IR emitter to control your gear and a mic sensitive enough to hear your commands over the blare of music. On the downside, you'll need to keep your old remotes (even ones that aren't smart) around for many functions.

Logitech offers the most efficient and intuitive smart remote in the market. Tech savvy users can connect media devices to smart home devices. function ga4_link114() { window.dataLayer.push(JSON.parse('{"event":"default_event","link_location":"product-grid"}')) }Read More

We could all use some decluttering, especially for the coffee table, and a universal remote is the perfect tool for the job. We put several of the most popular ones to the test to find the best Chief Clicker. Our top pick is the feature-packed Logitech Harmony Companion (function ga4_link136() { window.dataLayer.push(JSON.parse('{"event":"click_inarticle"}')) }available at Amazon) , which strikes the best balance between cost and functionality. We also tested a few budget-friendly models that won't connect to an entire suite of smart home devices, but will probably work with TV add-ons like DVD/Blu-ray players, select sound systems, and cable boxes.

Our pick for the overall best universal remote control is the Harmony Companion from Logitech, a hub-and-remote system that works alongside an official app to produce a seamless, smart home-integrated experience that won't break the bank.

The remote control itself is powered by a small, CR2032 lithium battery. The buttons respond quickly and with satisfying clicks, and the back of the remote is wrapped in a soft, grippy texture. Since the battery compartment is relatively small, there don't appear to be any hinges that would otherwise break easily.

If you don't plan on getting knee-deep in the Harmony Hub and Companion's advanced features, there's still a lot to appreciate about the Harmony experience. It comes at a cost that's significantly higher than traditional universal remotes, but it's as close as I've come to an ideal experience for a modern, heavily networked lifestyle. ff782bc1db
