Hmm, could be a problem for FireTV?

I don’t recall if myServer uses ADB for control of FireTV devices. If so, this is not the best of news:

Yes it does and oh dear. Time to work out how to make myServer pretend to be a Bluetooth keyboard.

All the AndroidTV devices are controlled via ADB.

I just updated one of my Fire Cubes to the latest version mentioned on the XDA forum and I still have control of the FireTV and Netflix. Have not tried all apps but it seems to still be working.

I don't use FireTV devices anymore but if this is actually the case I could see this making FireTV a mess to work with. I sincerely hope this isn't true, but this is Amazon we're talking about and it wouldn't be the first time they tried to stymie people from using custom launchers. I put nothing past them.

I imagine Bezos walking into a board room meeting, looking at his Amazon minions, and telling them "We're gonna need a bigger boat!"
