[Feature Request] autoplay on bluetooth connection

Open ulipo opened this issue 1 year ago • 5 comments

I'd love to have the option to automatically start playing music when connected to a specific device (e.g. my car). I used to achieve this with an external app that was launching legacy phonograph, but for some reason it is not working with phonograph plus.

Would it be sufficient to provide a suitable Intent receiver?

Probably It would be enough. The external app I am using to launch the application is called "bluetooth connect and play" on play store, in case you want to try out.

I may implement this feature(s) (i.e. connected to Bluetooth devices and then play as well as plug headset in and then play) in next nearby releases, but please also be in mind that since I am working on other features or refactoring-for-fixing, this feature may be not available very soon, so please be patient.

Take all the time you need, no rush! I cannot help with coding but I am available to try test builds, feel free to ask

Phonograph Plus is a very good music player. I also use a third-party app to launch my music (Macrodroid).

The music doesn't start when using the Simulate Media Button / Media Play action. I recorded a log and extracted the lines with phonograph. I hope it will help. Thank you for your work.

PS: I'm not sure if it's the same feature request / bug report as connected to Bluetooth devices and then play as well as plug headset in and then play so please let me know if you want me to create another issue.
