The Google TV and Fire TV test apps, and the Roku Windows bridge, use the TV test controller and nine-digit codes. Roku currently provides controls without a live picture. Real-device testing is still required; firmware may restrict control or screen capture. The Fire TV APK is for Android-based Fire OS, not Vega OS. The Samsung kit uses a separate local Windows bridge; its TV widgets need signing before installation.
