My channel uses the Options (*) button to access certain functionality within my app, so I use onKeyEvent extensively and at different levels of the chain. The issue I have is that the Options(*) button on the Roku stick seens to be always triggering the video options overlay on a Roku 4K Stick where on a Roku TV it works as expected.
I'm using the Timegrid scene with an embedded video node, which never has focus, I made sure of it an debug logs confirm it. On Roku TV the Options(*) button works as expected, my onKeyEvent gets triggered and key press is handled accordingly, on the Roku 4K stick onKeyEvent never gets triggered.
OnKeyEvent docs (https://developer.roku.com/en-ca/docs/references/scenegraph/component-functions/onkeyevent.md) state that the video options overlay gets triggered ONLY when the video node has focus.
such that the Options overlay now slides in whenever the Options button is pressed, the Video node is in focus, and the app does not have its OnKeyEvent() handler fired
This seems to be respected on RokU TV but not on the 4K Stick.
