The Nvidia Shield has a a great little remote, and was one of the things that really sold the system to my wife who did not want to be mucking around with apps and she wanted a simple nice and tactile remote.

interesting, may have to look into that. I really should take some photos of my setup, I have;
In cupboard upstairs
1 x Router
1 x 48 port switch
1 x 8 port POE switch (powers the on ceiling access points)
1 X master sky q box which links via cat6 to TV in lounge
1 x mini sky q box which links to master bedroom via cat 6
1 x mini sky q box which links to 2 x bedrooms, kitchen and office, via cat 6 and special splitter
4 x mini amps, each with a hardwired chromecast audio, each linking to a different room in the house via hardwired speaker cableThen in my office I have a qnap 4 bay NAs with 32tb of storage, linked to a mac mini which works as my plex server.
Then dotted through the house are 3 x google home mini and one standard Google Home. Also have 2 x Nests, one controls hot water & middle floor, the other controls ground floor underfloor heating and loft room heating.
Smart lighting and switches are next on my list...

Ah interesting, I have switched to using a simple amazon fire stick, hard wired in, as means other people can use the little remote to control it, rather than needing an app on their phone, which just meant they didn't bother...
