It's not a PC but a rather slow appliance. Folk want the PC experience and this is no PC. As to item 1, call it in to confirm if they implemented those keys in the app.

After a very long test of the Keyboard ... my conclusion:

With This keyboard your unable to work proper.

1. Very slow response of all keys (except Volume and Channel change).
2. Web Browse / Yutoube application Freezes and dont accept any keys.
3. The keys are not correct defined (example: Media Key "PLAY" incresse the Volume!!)
Right ARROW key: Scrolls in the Media Player options (Play,skip, stop etc) on the screen.
4...Very difficuld / unable to go and enter characters on the Browse / yutoube
5.. more more

Is there any app where i can redine the keys ?
I hope that Samsung face all this problems with a new Firmware.

Never saw a way to redefine keys.

Again, this is no PC. Just a slow appliance. Many learn this or think Sam will fix it with some firmware update. So far, I haven't seen that.

For me the fix is to return this keyboard and go get some other smart thing. Roku, Apple/Fire TV, Android box thing and keyboard.
