I’m after a remote for JMP that is just a remote. No local playback or streaming, no fancy extras, just a remote with some directional buttons, keyboard input, that sort of thing. Somethign akin to what Kore is to Kodi.

Does such a remote exist?

    I’ve been using Unified Remote to control my media PC (including any applications on it, such as Jellyfin) from my Android phone. I just use the track-pad remote, the keyboard input for typing, and the volume rocker for volume control. Though, there are lots of specialized remotes, including media remotes, available.

    This has worked well on my media PC running Windows. However, I’m about to rebuild and I’d like to run Linux instead. In the past I’ve had trouble with Unified Remote on Linux; the text I type, especially when pasting, comes out as gibberish. As such I’ve been looking for an alternative and will probably give KDE Connect a try.
