## iOS Remote Widget
Entities exposed as `TelevisionMediaPlayer` are controllable within the Apple Remote widget in
Control Center. Play, pause, volume up and volume down should work out of the box depending on the `supported_features`
of the entity. However, if your television can be controlled in other ways outside of the `media_player` entity, (i.e.
service calls to an IR blaster), it is possible to build an automation to take advantage of these events.
When a key is pressed within the Control Center Remote widget, the event `homekit_tv_remote_key_pressed` will be fired.
The key name will be available in the event data in the `key_name` field:
```yaml
automation:
trigger:
platform: event
event_type: homekit_tv_remote_key_pressed
event_data:
key_name: arrow_right
# Send the arrow right key via a broadlink IR blaster
action:
service: broadlink.send
host: 192.168.1.55
packet: XXXXXXXX
```
