Bluetooth Auto Connect and Play.

[ed4heights]

Dear Androgods,

Button tapping being the bane of my life, I seek a simple solution.

I've just got my hands on a stock Sammy GSII, unavailable in Arabia for the next four months. It's impressive.

Here's my wish:

I want to arrive home, and hit one widget on my homescreen that will automatically connect with a Bluetooth device (home theater) and start playing music.

One tap, nothing more.

Obviously, I will set my connection notification as 'Welcome home Sir. Cue music'

I've tried Tasker, but don't think it'll quite do it.

Discuss.

Any and all input is appreciated.

Many thanks.

Tasker can take actions based on connection with any specific BT device. I have mine crank up an audio redirector and start playing the Music app when it sees a connection to a particular earpiece.
