Add the ability to custom navigation navigation and touch

[usernein]

Can you elaborate?

[nikrays]

Можете ли вы уточнить?

I have a Phillips TV, I use the service as a navigation remote. For example:

service:remote.send_command
data:
  command: Up
target:
  entity_id: remote.55pus7304_12_remote

This way I can press up or down button respectively

[usernein]

Hmmm i got it. First i thought you needed custom buttons for using this card with other brands than Samsung but you might already be using this.

I guess your request is about touchpad and it actually works only on samsung (i didn't notice it before, thanks), i'll fix it soon

For buttons, you can use that custom buttons mentioned in the link above:

custom_keys:
  up:
    service: remote.send_command
    service_data:
      command: Up
      entity_id: remote.55pus7304_12_remote
  down:
    service: remote.send_command
    service_data:
      command: Down
      entity_id: remote.55pus7304_12_remote

Хммм я понял. Сначала я подумал, что вам нужны специальные кнопки для использования этой карты с другими брендами, кроме Samsung , но вы, возможно, уже используете это.

Я предполагаю, что ваш запрос касается тачпада, и он действительно работает только на samsung (раньше не замечал, спасибо), скоро исправлю

Для кнопок вы можете использовать пользовательские кнопки, упомянутые в ссылке выше:

custom_keys:
  up:
    service: remote.send_command
    service_data:
      command: Up
      entity_id: remote.55pus7304_12_remote
  down:
    service: remote.send_command
    service_data:
      command: Down
      entity_id: remote.55pus7304_12_remote

Thanks for the work done, it's a pity that the flexibility of customization still leaves much to be desired, maybe it's better for me not to configure these buttons yet, but to wait for your release with a custom touchpad?

[usernein]

@nikrays yeah, you can wait for the touchpad support but you'll still need to customize all keys (not only the navigation-related ones) to call the service remote.send_command with the commands to your Philips TV

The only thing you can't use right now is the touchpad, but everything else (afaik) you can But you still need to set custom buttons with the service calls

[nikrays]

@nikraysда, вы можете дождаться поддержки тачпада, но вам все равно нужно будет настроить все клавиши (не только связанные с навигацией), чтобы вызывать службу remote.send_commandс помощью команд для вашего телевизора Philips.

Единственное, что вы не можете использовать прямо сейчас, это тачпад, но все остальное (афаик) вы можете, но вам все равно нужно установить пользовательские кнопки со служебными вызовами.

Thank you, I understand, I started making these custom buttons a few days ago, there is of course an inconvenient nuance with icon mdi, it might be more convenient to do

Another vote from me to have the ability to remap the touchpad to use remote.send_command to control my Apple TV.

[Flo2410]

I also would love to be able to customize the touchpad. I would like to use it with the androidtv.adb_command service to control my chromecast.

[mattmansm]

Hi @usernein, any process with this? Thanks!

[ScottG489]

I'm interested in this as well!

As a pretty hacky workaround, you can listen for the events made from those buttons and act on them accordingly. The resulting events would have these distinct properties:

event.domain: media_player event.service: play_media event.service_data.media_content_type: send_key event.service_data.entity_id[0]: media_player.fake_entity_for_touchpad (whatever media_player you have set on the card) payload.event.service_data.media_content_id: KEY_<whatever key you pressed>

For buttons, you can use that custom buttons mentioned in the link above: ```yaml custom_keys: up: service: remote.send_command service_data: command: Up entity_id: remote.55pus7304_12_remote down: service: remote.send_command service_data: command: Down entity_id: remote.55pus7304_12_remote ```

Hi! Im creating a remote for my nvidia shield. it also uses the remote.send_command. Any chance you can add all button names to the example required for a complete functional dpad? And other buttons? so we have: up down left right and select? Also, when creating these custom keys, the icons disappear. What icons are used for up down left and right?

edit; think i already found it in the [tv-card]/tv-card.js file: "up": {"key": "KEY_UP", "icon": "mdi:chevron-up"}, "left": {"key": "KEY_LEFT", "icon": "mdi:chevron-left"}, "enter": {"key": "KEY_ENTER", "icon": "mdi:checkbox-blank-circle"}, "right": {"key": "KEY_RIGHT", "icon": "mdi:chevron-right"}, "down": {"key": "KEY_DOWN", "icon": "mdi:chevron-down"}
