What it is
An Android remote for one living room: a Sony BRAVIA TV on Google TV and a BRAVIA Theatre Bar, plus the computer shown on the TV. Touchpad or D-pad, a live keyboard, voice, the soundbar's volume and sound modes, and scenes that set the input, picture mode and a volume cap in one tap. Built to replace BRAVIA Connect for everyday use.
For Anyone with a BRAVIA TV on Google TV and a Theatre Bar who wants one remote for both.
How it works
- The remote, scenes and widgetsJetpack Compose and Material 3, with a Glance widget, a Quick Settings tile and a media notification
- Talking to the TVthe Android TV Remote v2 protocol over TLS, paired once with a code shown on the TV, plus Sony's IP control for picture and inputs
- Talking to the Theatre Barthe bar's IP control over TCP, for volume, sound field, night mode, bass and rear level
Decisions
- Local protocols only: it speaks Sony's and Google TV's own protocols on the LAN, so there is no account, no cloud and nothing to sign in to.
- Devices are pinned on first use, and pairing material is encrypted with an Android Keystore key.
- A pure Kotlin protocol module with a device simulator, so the wire formats and state machines are tested without a TV.
- Setup, room calibration and speaker placement stay in BRAVIA Connect, which tutti opens when you need it.
