For remote check out the Harmony Smart Control it's awesome, inexpensive, and uses a phone app as well. I use this remote in rooms with just TV, TV and Sonos, all the way up to TV w/ $50K in gear.

You have no idea how much I despise Harmony and yet there is no other good option short of CI products that are simply not available to an average consumer or anyone with a DIY bent. While I have access to URC Complete and Total Control software, getting my hands on the right hardware for reasonable pricing is impossible (and I don't like most of their stuff these days). |
Yeah I've been through everything all the way up to C4 and honestly unless you're trying to do some really crazy stuff the remote I linked - or one like it - is the best option. Especially for folks like my father, we built him a 7.2 Sonance beryllium, best of everything (within reason) and all he needs to understand to use it is picture of tv = Watch tv.
