Q: Multi-Language Support on Apple Wireless Keyboard on 4th Gen AppleTV

Hi.

With the 4th Gen AppleTV connected to an Apple Wireless Keyboard, is there a way to toggle between multiple languages, much like there is in iOS and OS X. We'd like to be able enter search terms in applications like YouTube in multiple languages, such as Thai and English.

Thanks.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mountain Lion

You cant

According to Apple, you are expected to set your Apple TV Language to the same as your keyboard!!
So, for example, I live in Norway and have bought a local keyboard (Norsk) and like to use my Apple TV in English. Now when I enter text it doesn't always match what I type.
