Welcome to the SmartThings Community, @schieska!
Have you used those capabilities, such as mediaPlayback (playbackStatus) from the app and they work correctly?
In general, OCF devices work at a plugin level, this means that the commands and status are shown/sent from the mobile app but that status is not always updated in the API. This depends on the Device Manufacturer and the handler they created for it.
Can you share more details about how you’re planning to use those values?

I would like to detect when my Samsung tv switches to certain apps, and its playback status. With this data I would control the lighting and other features in my media room. But what you’re saying is that the response only covers input commands from the smartthings app?

Each device is controlled by a handler which includes the capabilities that can be used with the device. Those are the ones you see in the status response.

I can check with the team why the mediaPlayback capability isn’t being populated, but I don’t see a capability that can help you detect when you change between apps in the Smart TV.
I sent you a DM asking for some information, can you check it, please?
