I experimented around with this a bit and here’s what I found, demonstrated using JRuby but feel free to use your favourite scripting language

In this case, my TV has a button item called LivingRoom_TV_RCButton, so adjust accordingly.

# frozen_string_literal: true

require "json"

# To play a video
# params = { contentId: "v=6ZfuNTqbHE8&t=0" }.to_json

# To play a playlist
params = { contentId: "list=PLusrypjchuO9CxzmJzXW2xE_4N0b32qvH" }.to_json

LivingRoom_TV_RCButton.thing.launch_application("youtube.leanback.v4", params)
# We need to hit "Enter" because youtube presented me with the profile selection screen. Hit enter to select the default / first profile.
# Adjust this if you want to select a different profile. Just send "right" a number of times before "enter".
after(5.second) { LivingRoom_TV_RCButton.command("ENTER") }

You can see how it’s done for other apps (e.g. netflix) here Connect-SDK-Android-Core/src/com/connectsdk/service/WebOSTVService.java at 919613c965a8b485756f60a822c7daec67ab7efb · ConnectSDK/Connect-SDK-Android-Core · GitHub
