can anyone recommend a good quality mi box type remote that works on shield?

by Max_Roc

Not interested an in air mouse or keyboard. Just a mi box or fire tv type remote with physical volume buttons that works really well. Bluetooth is preferred, as my usb ports are taken, but I'd consider a 2.4 dongle.

I have been using fire tv remotes as my primary remote, but this accessibility bug is annoying and I'm ready to move onto something else.

Thanks.

This one is popular. There are links to the remote in the video description.

Works fine on both my Raspberry Pi3 and MiBox.

Its basically an IR remote, but without the microphone.

I can't find a good Bluetooth and IR combo universal remote for my Mi Box.

That said, you could buy a Mi Box replacement remote or a FireTV replacement remote.

You may have to make sure the FireTV remote wasn't updated to RF, but I know the old one was Bluetooth and works with my Mi Box.

Avoid BT unless you want RF interference with the Shield to rear it ugly head.

You need wireless Mini remote with a USB mini dongle, because that will survive the Shield sleeping / rebooting and any 2.4Ghz Bluetooth RF interference issues

Seriously get a USB Hub and avoid Bluetooth.
