So I've been using YATSE for some time now (love the new look, btw), and just migrated KODI to a FireTV, and a feature suggestion came to me.
The FireTV remote app is atrocious, and frankly all the keys I'd need are represented via the normal YATSE remote interface (but obviously only work within KODI). Would it be possible to implement a per host ability to send native android remote commands (Perhaps via ADB) for the directional, select & back buttons (and maybe even home)? I know if I use ADB from my computer, I can send the necessary button presses, but I don't know if it's feasible to implement ADB from one Android device to another to send such commands (or perhaps there's a better way then ADB).
I know this is likely out of scope for YATSE, but with the proliferation of Android boxes with a real 10 foot interfaces (FireTV & Google's Nexus box coming to mind) it might start being more in demand.
The benefit would be that I can use the same remote to control XBM...(er fine)... KODI and my native android apps.
