Physical Keyboard Layout

Hello,

On Google TV, it seems that there isn't any settings to change the layout of a physical keyboard connected either in Bluetooth or USB. This setting is available on Android and Android TV, I don't understand why it was removed because now I can't use my Bluetooth keyboard to type and also the onscreen keyboard. I can use Logitech Keyboard to remap my physical keyboard to AZERTY, but now I can't have the onscreen keyboard. I think this setting should be on Google TV because when you want to type some text, using a remote with the onscreen keyboard, is really slow and not easy. And because I speak French and when I want to use the speech to text, it makes a lot of mistakes on words that aren't in French.

 

Cheers

Hi Tructruc00,

 

Thanks for posting here in the Google Nest Community. We’re sorry for the trouble, and this is not the experience that we wanted you to have. There are users who claim that they can pair Bluetooth keyboards with their Chromecast with Google TV, and it works fine. Although not all makes and models are compatible, especially those with versions higher than Bluetooth 4.2, which is what the Chromecast with Google TV has, I suggest you send feedback about this via Settings > Help and Feedback. Let us know if you have other concerns with your Chromecast device.

 

Thanks,

Kimy
