Keyboard Search Functionality

[NaikUrRehman]

Has anyone worked on sending text input to search on YouTube using a phone keyboard (via Android TV Remote Protocol)?

I'm trying to send text input to an Android TV device by constructing a RemoteImeBatchEdit message. I serialize the message and send it using the same send function that normally works for keypress events (like DPAD or HOME). However, as soon as I send the text input, the TV disconnects unexpectedly.

Has anyone encountered this issue or knows the correct way to send IME text to Android TV?

@zoobibackups, yep. The Voice Assistant and text sending functional is a paid feature. Message me an email if interesting.

Hi @AftabUfaq,

I’m currently working on the same IME text input implementation for Android TV. I managed to get text input working, but any typing causes issues (missed characters / instability), while slow input works fine.

Could you please share your solution or approach for sending RemoteImeBatchEdit messages? It would really help. Thanks!
