Intents i'm not using, but someone could have interest in.

(Not tested by me, but tested by people in the Home Assistant Forum.)

Hulu            { "entity_id": "media_player.shield", "intent": "-n com.hulu.livingroomplus/.MainActivity"}
Live Channels   { "entity_id": "media_player.shield", "intent": "-n com.google.android.tv/com.android.tv.MainActivity"}

Spotify         { "entity_id": "media_player.shield", "intent": "-n com.spotify.tv.android/.SpotifyTVActivity" }
HBO Go          { "entity_id": "media_player.shield", "intent": "-n eu.hbogo.androidtv.production/eu.hbogo.androidtv.MainActivity" }
Plex            { "entity_id": "media_player.shield", "intent": "-n com.plexapp.android/com.plexapp.plex.activities.SplashActivity" }

S0undTV (twtich){ "entity_id": "media_player.shield", "intent": "-n com.s0und.s0undtv/com.s0und.s0undtv.activities.MainActivity" }
SmartYoutubeTV: { "entity_id": "media_player.shield", "intent": "-n com.liskovsoft.videomanager/com.liskovsoft.smartyoutubetv.bootstrap.BootstrapActivity" }

ADB command to find out the intent from diffrent apps:

adb shell pm dump org.xbmc.kodi | grep -A 1 "MAIN" | grep org.xbmc.kodi | awk '{print $2}' | grep org.xbmc.kodi

adb shell pm dump tv.twitch.android.app | grep -A 1 "MAIN" | grep tv.twitch.android.app | awk '{print $2}' | grep tv.twitch.android.app

adb shell pm dump se.tv4.tv4playtab | grep -A 1 "MAIN" | grep se.tv4.tv4playtab | awk '{print $2}' | grep se.tv4.tv4playtab

adb shell pm dump se.svt.android.svtplay | grep -A 1 "MAIN" | grep se.svt.android.svtplay | awk '{print $2}' | grep se.svt.android.svtplay

adb shell pm dump com.google.android.youtube.tv | grep -A 1 "MAIN" | grep com.google.android.youtube.tv | awk '{print $2}' | grep com.google.android.youtube.tv

adb shell pm dump com.netflix.ninja | grep -A 1 "MAIN" | grep com.netflix.ninja | awk '{print $2}' | grep com.netflix.ninja

Tested @tboyce1 command on my Shield and this is what i came up with:

(https://community.home-assistant.io/t/community-hass-io-add-on-adb-android-debug-bridge/96375/23)

Started the consol in the ADB container in Portainer.

adb shell

pm list packages | sed -e "s/package://" | while read x; do cmd package resolve-activity --brief $x | tail -n 1 | grep -v "No activity found"; done

And got this:

  • de.blinkt.openvpn/.activities.MainActivity
  • com.plexapp.android/com.plexapp.plex.activities.SplashActivity
  • com.nvidia.tegrazone3/.LaunchActivity
  • com.android.documentsui/.LauncherActivity

Greate stuff! What would be the code for Mute, Vol Up, Vol Down?

Edit: got it to work

KEYCODE_VOLUME_MUTE
KEYCODE_VOLUME_UP
KEYCODE_VOLUME_DOWN

Now I'm trying to find if there is a way to make this a slider rather than buttons...
