Connecting to Nvidia Shield (or other Android TV) via Bluetooth for media control, wake/sleep

I’m in exactly the same situation, fearing the moment when my beloved Harmony will die :frowning:

I’m using

  • an ESP32 as a bluetooth remote controllable through HA. See ESPHome BLE Keyboard
  • cheap bluetooth and/or RF remotes that talk to HA via the “keyboard remote” integration (Keyboard Remote - Home Assistant)
  • an integration of my own that simulates the “activities” of an Harmony

to “emulate” the Harmony.
