Roku Channels like functions on AndroidTV

by Bboy486

Roku has channels that when paired with Harmony Hub can launch these channels, so I have a nexus player and Mi box and was trying to recreate this so a button on the harmony remote launches an app like Netflix.

This person figured a workaround solution to get the harmony hub to launch an app on android tv seamlessly (in short, by setting it up to launch when pressing a keyboard key then sending that key from harmony): https://www.reddit.com/r/AndroidTV/comments/4x6ot0/harmony_remote_to_launch_an_app_like_netflix_on/dao5wzx

I would very much like to get this same behavior as well.

First things first, you gotta get the URL for their m3u, assuming that's what they use. Which would be pretty sweet in the first place. After that, you have to package each one into an apk
