Description

Describe your suggested feature

override fun onKeyDown(keyCode: Int, event: KeyEvent?): Boolean {
when (keyCode) {
KeyEvent.KEYCODE_SETTINGS,
KeyEvent.KEYCODE_MENU -> {

           showAccountSelectLinear()
		   return true
        }

"Added onKeyDown override to intercept KEYCODE_SETTINGS and KEYCODE_MENU. This triggers the showAccountSelectLinear() function to quickly open the account selection interface using the remote control."

Research direction

Start by locating the Android screen or component that contains showAccountSelectLinear() and review how remote-control key events are handled there. Add support for KEYCODE_SETTINGS and KEYCODE_MENU so they open the account selection interface, then verify both shortcuts on the relevant Android or TV layout.
