Shield TV CLIENT support?

Hi.. Does virtualhere run as a client on a Shield TV box?

I see the app that runs on android TV, but its the server side, not a client.

My use case is a home theater setup where all the AV gear is in an adjacent closet. What I want is to use a remote bluetooth device and FLIRC IR receiver connected to a Raspberry Pi 4 server inside the theater room, and have the Shield TV and the AV receiver remote,.

Does this work? How would I set this up?

Can the Android App also be used as a client?

thx
