Yes.
Any password with enough entropy to be useful is pretty much impossible to
type on some screen keyboard using the arrow pad on a remote.
Plus what PHB said about turning ones password over to unknown device.
This is a place where TIGRESS might be able to do some work, where the TV
creates a mailbox, displays the mailbox location as a QR code, and you scan
from the phone with a *wallet* app.
This is done today with some youtube players on TVs already.
That is thinking about functionality. I want the seamless experience from booking through to checkin through to checkout.
Don't think about 'how'.
