The service runs fine on a $20 Android TV device, Fire Stick or Roku. You are using a ChromeCast that's most likely fairly old at this point. The Apple TV app also works fine on the ChromeCast with Google TV. There is no need to use an "over priced" Apple device you do need a modern device though.

The one for the computer is here the aluminium Apple TV Remote.
Any Apple TV remote in IR mode will work. You should be able to find the aluminium one cheap on ebay if you don't want to spend $20 on Amazon. I have a box of them from the Mac's and Apple TV's I have purchased.
There is no remote that can that power on the Mini if it has been shutdown you can only wake it from sleep.
