I have a new Roku Ultra. The remote that came with it has buttons for Netflix, Hulu, ESPN and Sling. However, I have a Harmony Hub remote and I can program it to choose YouTube TV as the start channel when I push the TV button on my Harmony Remote.

Start TV
Start Roku Ultra
Set TV input
Starting Channel = YouTube TV

That is all there is to starting YouTube TV a Harmony universal remote.
