I've been thinking about replacing an RPi4 running Kodi, and N100/N150 seems with looking at. But one requirement is support for remote control support, including power on and off (preferably with discrete on/off commands). Anyone have suggestions?

Not sure about power on/off—you'd have to hack together a solution for that separately, but I've had good luck with an IR dongle like the Flirc USB: https://flirc.tv/products/flirc-usb-receiver

Yep, those are pretty nice. It's on/off that's really hard to find. Discrete on, specifically, since with Flirc you can handle off in software.
