Broadlink RM4 mini

I have 6 broadlink RM 4 mini IR blasters controlling 6 splits (1 x Samsung, 2 X Deakin, 1 X Fujitsu Heavy industries, 1 X Kelvinator) using SmartIR integration and work great. I found scanning the IR codes takes sometime but gives you full control. Having the broadlinks I also control TV"s, soundboard etc. So think about what else you can control in addition to your splits, the broadlink are cheaper and come with temp and humidity sensors and were less than a quarter of the senisbo delivered via Amazon.

This was my main reason for getting into HA. I hate multiple remotes. I bought a Broadlink RM4 mini and learned all the IR commands of my physical remotes, and created a dashboard as a custom remote on my phone. Wife approved, we've been using it for a year+ now. I also use a single Chromecast Remote to control all of it thru HA, via an esp32 IR receiver. Let me know if you'd like any details! https://preview.redd.it/kg5gwo6q987d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2c34c643921895ef52b6db0b0672d7746d3456ea

Thanks. I already have a Broadlink RM4 Mini. I just tried learning some IR codes from an old Humax remote, which I thought I could use as an example. While most of them were accepted, a few important buttons refused to be recognised (e.g. most notably the OK button). I seem to remember having similar problems before with universal IR remotes. Are there any Zigbee remote controls on the market which have Android TV style buttons?
