Universal remote?

I'm just setting up a new office lounge.
At home I've used a Vizio Google TV (which has pass-thru HDMI) to control the TV, the Google TV box and the DVR cable box. I'd like to get a Nexus Player for the office but as it doesn't have HDMI switching, I'm wondering what people are doing to reduce the remote clutter?
The TV is a brand new Sony Smart TV (W790B) - unfortunately couldn't wait for an integrated Sony Android TV .
I presume the NP remote is BT so that creates an additional layer of complexity>
I've used some logitech universal remotes in the past which were "ok" but would love first-hand feedback.

You could use a flirc receiver and use any IR control to control the NP.

I am using the Logitech Smart Control with it. There isn't an official profile for it yet but there is a working compatible profile for it. The only key I can't map to it is the menu button. Also, if you rapidly press the buttons, it sometimes loses the connection for a short time. Other than that, it's been awesome only having to use 1 remote!

Thank you for the great suggestion! Do you know how the Smart Control communicates with the NP? Is it by BT? What "compatible profile" did you use?

The Smart Control has a unifying receiver that does both IR and bluetooth. This is where I got the steps to set it up.
Logitech | Forum Guide
Here is a copy and paste of what was said if you don't feel like accessing the link:
1. On the app, go to Harmony Setup > Add / Edit Devices & Activities > Devices > Add Device
2. Select 'Computer' from the list > Windows
3. Select 'Yes' when it asks you if you want to screate a new Activity with the newly added device.
4. Select devices to be included in your activity
5. Select 'Watch PC' for Activity Type
6. Once you've finished up selecting all the input for your devices, it will go into a bluetooh pairing mode to allow you to pair up the remote with the windows computer.
7. Navigate to Settings on your Nexus Player > Remotes & accessories > Add Accessory. Give it a few seconds and it should find a "Harmony Keyboard". Select it, and your'e done.

Have you got any solution? I am also looking for it.

Control an Android TV via smartphone (use smartphone as mouse or keyboard for Android TV)

I am estonished how less information I could find about that topic. Control a TV set via standard IR remote control is painful. Just think about type in a search word for the different apps.
Wouldn't it be much easier to use smartphone for this? I found in PlayStore quite a few apps that promise things like that, but I get non of them working. Most time they doesn't even find my Android TV, although all is in same net.
The only app I could found that does at least a little was the "Android TV Remote" (yellow icon) - but only after manually type in my IP. But it can just move curser a bit, so not so helpful.
I heard about Googles own app: "Android TV Remote Service".
RIP Android TV remote app, hello Google TV remote app

While I could found that app on PC google store, it was not available at smart phone? Why that. So I go for some other place to download as:

but couldn't install it.
Anyone has some ideas how to solve the problem?

Any keyboard for Android TV which has full-size? I mean like hacker keyboard but support remote?

Novice in Miracast and similar apps, help please?

Hello,
Up till now I was using Windows 10's Desktop Projection to mirror screen to my TV.
- it works phenomenally and I'm happy
However, I have another TV which isn't a smart TV, so I bought an android TV Box.
- The Android Box has a preinstalled Miracast app
I want to know a way to use my regular desktop projection to connect to Miracast but that Miracast asks me to confirm a password or PIN that only I know?
- I do not wish to install another app to my PC
- I am okay with installing apps similar to Miracast on my Android TV Box
On the internet I found various applications like LetsView, Reflector 4, AirServer, Mirroring360, ApowerMirror, ScreenBeam Configurator app, Wi-Fi Direct Password-Protected Transmitter, AnyDesk, Chrome Remote Desktop, Microsoft Remote Desktop, Miracast Widget & Shortcut app, Miracast Screen Sharing App, Connectify Hotspot, but I fail to realize the potential of all these and which one to pick based on details and preferences (the less clutter, the better. I only need the password protection option).
Is there any app that I can only install to my Android Box and use regular Desktop Projection to connect to it, but that it asks me for a PIN that I have to enter on the device which I am using to connect to that Android Box (in this case laptop)?
If not, what is the closest alternative?

Anyone?
