I would like to have the Shield up and running in an integrated fashion on the day it arrives, and want to make sure that I'm getting things right. I have a Logitech Harmony 650 remote, which is IR only.

I'm going to bite the bullet and go for the Nvidia Shield TV Pro. I haven't used it but it seems like a viable option. If you have modern TV and receiver connected to your Shield, I would bet you can get by with just the Shield remote most of the time. Once that is done I expect I will be able to use the Shield remote much more easily by using CEC to simply turn on/off the TV and Receiver as needed. Eventually I plan to get a new TV, and new receiver. I like its built in keyboard and it works as an airmouse which is kind of cool but not super useful. Everything else is done on the Rii remote. Most of the time, I tell the Harmony I want to 'Watch Shield' and it turns on the TV and Receiver and sets them to the right inputs and I can use it to adjust the volume if I want. Neither work well with CEC so I need the more function-rich Harmony to make them work well.
I didn't bother to get it working because my TV is positively ancient in terms of home theater devices (Vizio VP505 XVT Plasma from 2010/2011 I think) and my receiver is well into middle age (Onkyo TX-NR616 from 2013).
the Shield remote has an IR blaster in it and you can tell the shield that you want to use its remote to run the TV or receiver volume using the shield remote. I *also* have a Harmony One remote that I use to run my TV and receiver. It works very well because it has an integrated keyboard.

I have a Shield TV Pro (2019) and I got this remote to work with it (via USB 2.4ghz dongle it came with).
