Yeah, I never noticed it before, but I opened a roku app on my phone and when I chose "switch device" it shows 3 Roku Ultras that I can control.
I also use 2 Roku remotes on the same table in the living room; each controls a different Ultra, and the TV switches inputs according to what remote I grab.
So you can control each individually with multiple remotes, or use the app and choose which it controls (each Roku has a name and a location (e.g. Roku 1, Living Room), and that's what I see in the app). Proximity is no problem. Just choose a model that uses a wifi-direct remote.
That would be great but I can't get the app to connect to my Roku stick. I've tried everything including entering the IP address of the Roku to connect manually. I need to operate two in the same room to stream sports on two different sticks but I'm not going to buy second stick unless I can get the first to connect. It's really dumb that you can't just pair the remote to only one stick.
