LGOLED keyboard/mouse query.

Simmz · 8 Mar 2019 at 16:45

Anyone know if it's possible to use a keyboard and mouse on other external devices but plugged in through the TV?

Got a B7 and wired keyboard and mouse is fine on the TV, but was trying to control apple TV with it (no usb on apple tv), but I can't control anything outside of the TV app side of things.

Just wondered if anyone knows a work around or if not possible.

Thanks.

I don't know the answer but I'm intrigued as to why not just use the remote or is this to use Apple apps?

Apple apps and also jump into a VM remotely through apple tv.

You should be able to use a Bluetooth keyboard with your ATV

I wouldn't have thought HDMI control extends to USB devices connected to the TV, so no, I can't see this working.

The USB's cant control things that are connected through HDMI, only stuff (apps) on the TV itself.
You are best of getting bluetooth alternatives and connect directly to the apple TV.
