Issue: Video playback stopped abruptly when a Bluetooth remote disconnected from my Android TV device.
Root Cause: The activity was being recreated when input devices connected/disconnected, causing the playback fragment's onStop() to be called and ending playback.
Fix:
Added android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|navigation"] to MainActivity to prevent activity recreation on input device changes
Optimized onConfigurationChanged() to skip theme reapplication for input device changes, eliminating visual glitches during playback
Result: Playback now continues seamlessly when Bluetooth remotes or other input devices connect/disconnect.
Testing:
In my testing during an episode of doctor who, I had no more playback issues, whereas previously it was stopping every 5 minutes.
