A remote for the Nvidia Shield TV WITHOUT that $@%$ Netflix Button on it?? (self.androidtv)

The stupid Netflix button on my "Toblerone" remote is constantly getting accidentally pushed. (Sometimes I think just walking too close to it sets it off.)

Are there aftermarket options for a remote to use with my Shield TV? I realize now how much better laid-out the remote for my old Roku was.

@wilberfan There are button remapper apps available for the shield that let you change what the Netflix button does. I remapped mine to open Plex, for example.

Then you if you combine it with something like this... I think you get it.

OK, this is awesome. The button mapper app seems to be working flawlessly (he said, obviously jinxing it)! One tap, Emby, two taps Youtube, long press Home. Now I have to decide if I wanna splurge on one of those stickers... 😎

Thanks for all the tips, gang!
