TCL TV with GoogleTV easy app/button to change input

by jwrjr25

I have a TCL 65S546 running Android TV OS version 11. Is there an easy way to change inputs? Preferably with either an app on the homescreen or a button on the remote.

I put the TV app on the homescreen and it originally went to HDMI2 (my bluray player). But, after hitting the tv button on the remote which launches the antenna, the TV app goes to antenna rather than HDMI2. The TV app appears to go to whatever input was last selected, while the remote's TV button always goes to HDMI2. I don't have an antenna attached, but the remote button gets accidentally pressed often (kids...)

Is there a way to make the TV app always go to HDMI2, disable the remote's TV button, program the TV button to go to HDMI2, or load another app that will launch HDMI2?

I know I can go to settings and choose a different input. But I'm looking for a simple, obvious solution on the homescreen or remote that will let my wife switch to dvd without hunting for it.

Thanks

I do use the antenna but primarily for my recast dvr. I also split the signal for the Google tv hacked into my Hisense tv. I find the live tv to be the weakest option on the Google tv (but it is hacked over the original android tv os which came with tv). My tv remote doesn't have a tv button but I assigned live tv to the favorite button and that works when the internet is out and I need the antenna as a back up.
