I want to put the box behind the tv as I don't like to see cables and boxes. That works fine with Apple TV 4 which has bluetooth. It also works with the Raspberry PI using the TV remote and CEC capabilities of the tv.
However, wouldn't it be a problem putting this device behind the tv because it would need a clear line of sight for the IT remote to function?
If you don't need the built-in tuner then you can get a WeTek Hub, which includes an IR extender that plugs into the box. Though the Play2 would likely work because it's IR receiver is very sensitive and seems to work well when bouncing IR signals off of walls. Your milage may vary, of course.
