Some Android TV exclusive features?

I believe with tvOS and iOS the SDK did not permit having the currently playing channel shrunken into a small window when you bring up the guide. With Android TV, is this something that’s possible? Likewise, are there any plans to eventually integrate into the “recommended” section of the Shield TV home screen for things like recorded shows, along with the ability to have video playback in the background if you go back to the Android TV launcher? I’m not asking when these things will be coming, but rather if they are possible and if they’re something you have on your radar?

Thanks

Some or all of these are definitely possible. We’re currently focused on feature parity between the platforms, but will start exploring AndroidTV-specific integrations in the near future.
