The BraviaTV is set as mediaplayer and has next/previous track buttons but for a tv a next/previous channel would be more useful.
I propose to change the following in braviatv.py
def media_next_track(self):
"""Send next track command."""
self._braviarc.media_next_track()
def media_previous_track(self):
"""Send the previous track command."""
self._braviarc.media_previous_track()
to
def media_next_track(self):
"""Send next track command."""
self._braviarc.send_command('channelUp')
def media_previous_track(self):
"""Send the previous track command."""
self._braviarc.send_command('channelDown')
However, a Bravia TV can act as a media player (at least my model can). I am not sure how useful that next/previous track feature is, but instead of changing the behaviour of this particular media player, I would prefer extending the existing component to a “tv and media player” component and introduce a new UI element for changing channels.

I’d also suggest extending feature rather than replacing it. I’m using my tv as a controller for hifi 75% of time.
voted for extension rather than modification.
I was so pleased when I saw this feature had already been requested. Happily added my vote and then realised this was from 3 years ago!!
It would be good if this could be added to the Sony Bravia TV integration though.
