More time to enter channel numbers w/ remote

Channels Apple TV Feature Requests
#1

Recently got a Sofabaton specifically for Channels on my Apple TV 4K and it works wonderfully for channel surfing and quick navigation. However, Channels demands very fast button presses in succession to manually enter a channel number.

I’d like to eventually give a similar remote to my family members to test out, but having to quickly tap any channel number that’s 3 digits long (or more) requires coordination with the Sofabaton’s tiny number buttons! An option to allow for 2-3 seconds between number presses would be nice.

I'm using a Harmony Companion on Google TV and the biggest problem is with OTA channel numbers putting that "." in. I've programmed it to happen, but only get it to work 1/8 times. I think I had similar issues when I was using the Sofabaton remote, especially since that remote tended to hiccup a lot. Getting a few seconds between digits would be greatly appreciated!

I'll increase the timeout from 1s to 1.5s in the next update.
