This is a huge benefit of AppleTV and having an iOS device. When the password is prompted for on the TV, my phone buzzes and I use the LastPass vault on the phone to paste the gibberish automatically.
I'm sure there are similar schemes for other devices (Chromecast/FireTV?). But when the TV itself is "smart", I bet it's infuriating.

- testvox 7y agoChromecast doesn't have its own UI or authentication, it just uses the authentication of the device the stream was started from (being able to delegate that is a requirement for chromecast support). So it solves the same issue but in a very different way. Its a pretty clever solution but requiring all interaction with your tv to happen through another computing device can get annoying.
