On Android TV the mpv.conf editor used Plezy's own on-screen keyboard instead of Gboard, and the only way to get a long conf onto a TV was to retype it key by key (#2232). The system keyboards cannot host the multiline editor: FireTVIME has no newline key, and both FireTVIME and Gboard could wipe a pre-filled multiline field on the first keystroke after the first-show restartInput. On TV, render one single-line native field per line, with a line-number gutter, a remove button per row and an Add line button. Rows open their keyboard on Select only, so D-pad traversal does not raise it. A value arriving with newlines (a paste from a phone remote) is split into rows and typing continues on the last one; the rows are keyed so the split does not rebind another row's input host. The keyboard's action key does not insert a row: the app never learns which action the IME sent, and FireTVIME reports Back as `previous`, so an insert-on-action editor kept opening rows on every Back. Completion hands focus down instead — the next row, or Add line after the last one. TvTextInputController gains focusAndOpenTextInput() so a row the app creates (Add line, paste split) can be typed into without a second Select; it activates after the focus request lands, since the host's focus sync deactivates an unfocused field. Verified on a Google TV box (Gboard, Android 14) and a Fire TV Stick (FireTVIME): rows keep their text on open, Back closes the keyboard without side effects, edits persist across leaving the screen. Phone, desktop and pointer platforms keep the text-area editor. close #2232
