AndroidTV Binding [3.2.0;4.2.0)

I have considered pulling it in as well for media control but haven’t for a few reasons.

I’m fairly certain that the Chromecast binding is still using v2 of the Cast API. Since it continued to work, no one has put time into implementing v3 (which was released in 2017).

Support for the remote of Chromecast with Google TV?

I am afraid I cannot help very much. I neither own a Google TV nor a remote for it. Additionally it will be hard to add much more new features to the Chromcast binding because it depends on an external library which uses v2 of Googles Cast API. AFAIK this API version has been replaced by a new version some time ago. Thus we in general have to think about a redesign of the whole binding to support the new Cast API.

So…I guess if you wanted to go deeper down the rabbit hole, you could turn this into a replacement for the Chromecast binding as well.

But I’m not actually requesting that, because you’ve already put in a ton of effort for which we’re grateful!
