Assuming your remote has rubber keys, you may consider something like
this before completely giving up:

I've used it before, and while it's not a permanent fix, it can give
some new temporary life to a remote that may otherwise be destined for
the trash.

And, BTW, the Kickstarter has been live for a while. There's just under
a week left to pledge.

http://kickstarter.yio-remote.com/

The Remote 2 comes fully assembled (not a kit). It's?369 (about $431
according to Kickstarter), but there's also shipping from Europe, which
is an additional ?40 to US/Canada (?25 to Europe, ?30 to
UK/Norway/Switzerland, ?50 to Australia/NZ). Full details on the Yio
remote website: https://www.yio-remote.com/

Seems it's designed to be local (no need to use Alexa/Google/Apple
Home/...), fully programmable (even the touchscreen--and audio messages)
and with an API, so it seems that it would be rather straightforward to
use with MythTV.

I'm considering at least doing a ?10 "I'm interested" pledge so I have
the option to increase to the full remote purchase level when they get
to orders and shipping.
