The new remote for Android TV (https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/androidtv_remote) allows you to launch specific apps in Google TV.
In the example it shows youtube, netflix, amazon and Disney. Of which only Netflix seems to work and not for a specific movie.
Where can I find a complete list of how to open the different apps? For example I want to Open Spotify to a specific playlist or youtube to a specific video. The sample shown does not work.
See Android TV Remote - App Links/Deep Linking - Guide for a guide how to find out supported URLs for an app.
I have only tested opening a specific YouTube video on SmartTubeNext and it works for me. I don’t see why it wouldn’t work on the regular YouTube app as well.
Great resouce! Just what I was looking for. Though for some reason all seem to work except for youtube. I am trying to use https://www.youtube.com just like the documentation sample shows but it will just not work in a Google TV device.
Try vnd.youtube:// or vnd.youtube.launch:// mentioned in the guide/wiki. Those have been reported to work on Chromecast with Google TV.
Worked! thaks
