[Q] Miracast autoconnect

[unknownprotocols]

Okay, I have Tasker, and my hope is to make my Nexus 4 autoconnect to my ptv3000 miracast adapter. I can manually connect just fine, but I want to find a command that will make the Nexus connect to the miracast automatically instead of having to navigate to display, wireless display, and then click on the adapter name... Quite tedious everytime I start my car... Even a shortcut directly to the wireless display section in settings is a start. I ran logcat recording while I manually connected, but I didn't see what I was hoping to.

I too have been trying to get this to work in Tasker but so far no luck. A few months back I ran across a thread on Reddit from a user who was able to get Tasker to work along with an add-on package. At the time I tried the same technique but couldn't get it to work. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find that thread again. Once my Google-Fu regains full strength and I find the thread again I will post it and it might give you some clues.

If this goofy slimport adapter wasn't so marked up right now... Bought miracast for cheaper! Now I almost wish I would have paid the $80 for slimport

Is it possible that the WiFiDisplay.APK might launch Miracast connection more efficiently when combined with Tasker?

Here's a Reddit thread that discussed stripping the APK from the ROMs that use it.

Apparently, it's pretty simple to do.

There's also Android Transporter, which may provide the same thing as WiFiDisplay.APK.
