Permanent Play to TV setting

first of all I am assuming this is not limited to the Apple TV.

What I'd like to request is a default setting on the mobile devices eg. iPad to automatically to play on a destination eg. Apple TV without the prompt.

This will allow me to setup an iPad with channels as part of a control screen for automations and other things. It may also be useful for others as a universal remote option

It's probably easier to do this with the API instead, which you can invoke using Shortcuts.

There are example shortcuts at the bottom of that page.

Yes, I have been using those. The experience through shortcuts is quite different. It is slower and less seamless and also requires management. Either creating a shortcut for each channel or library item or creating a menu within shortcuts that pops up which is limited to the UI created within the shortcut.
