When my TV remote stopped working, I could’ve just replaced the battery. Instead, I designed and built my own universal smart remote — complete with 3D printed buttons, a custom PCB, and full Home Assistant integration. Was it a massive overreaction? Absolutely. But now it controls my whole smart home.

wonder what it would have taken to add instead a charging plate receiver and had a charging plate transmitter under the coffee table…. seen some amazing desk that had that feature so you could charge your phone while it was next to you and needing less cables to manage regularly, plus you get the benefit of charging it, and it "having its own place" so set it and forget it would apply…. they look like the receiver pads are 4 to 6$….
For those always losing the remote, add a "find me" beep, lol
Ist er deutsch? Weil er hat gesagt sein >Samsung Remote has been giving up the Ghost< was ja eigentlich ein deutsch Sprichwort ist, aber auf englisch?
i would have sworn that the opening to this video had diffrent music to start with, did you change something ??
I am super keen to make this, would I be able to make this work on a PS5 as a media remote?
I still have a harmony remote. I thought about setting it up again recently.
Personally I still like IR blasters. They just work short of the rare dead battery. Pairing apps, web Auth, Bluetooth, etc is a pita when you just want to watch a movie, but your Auth timed out or the app got updated.
"Because I have a problem" No u don't buddy, its just that the world has forgotten what quality is.
Still using my Logitech harmony remote 🙂
Very cool! Would suggest wireless charging, so you could just leave it on a table to charge it
