change resolution via phone - Google Chromecast

!!

if you are using ARUnchained Reloaded, the Dev said that he is working on an autocast to build into the app. I've been trying to make a reliable tasker command, but i can onl get it to turn on hotspot when my HU bt connects and pull up the cast screen screen on the phone. Havent figured out how to get it to actually send the cast.

i ended up using the autoinput plugin for tasker and it works really well, could do with lowering the casting quality next which atm i dont believe can be done.

Would you mind posting your profile, or explain how for automating the cast screen with autoinput. For some reason I can't get that part working even using autoinput.

G1 Webcam

I was wondering if anyone had any ideas how to turn the g1 camera into an actual webcam connected to your computer with a USB. I've tried the method of pulling images and streamlining them through ADB, framerate is terrible and just not fast enough. If anyone has any better methods or way of doing this lets get cracking and release something asap

He wants to connect it to his computer.
qik works great for that unless you want to stream to a site other than qik.
to clarify yes i get that he wants to use it as a regular webcam for something like stickam...etc, nothing out there to do that yet though.
exactly. I want to actually use it like you would a normal webcam. I dont want to stream to a server. I would rather have it stream to my computer and have applications handle displaying it. We would probably need to create a custom driver for that, but that shouldn't be too difficult if we can first find out a way to send more frames per second then I have a friend that can handle the driver issue.

If that's true (and from the looks of it I guess it is) then that would be AWESOME!! ..do share with others how you managed to do that!!
Using screencast does work, but it still has an issue with low frames.
For this you need either Droidexplorer (which is what i am using) or Screencast, and the SDK setup.
Open screencast, turn phone camera on, screencast has a record feature.
More info on making this happen would be greatly appreciated!
i didnt use recording, it was streamed live, i cant remember on how to do it, i will have a look at my computer when i get home! and yes the frame rate is pretty poor but when i use the webcam i hardly move so its alright
ok so how to do it first of all let me tell you that you have to have the phone showing on the desktop because screencast shows your phone on your desktop and screencamera shows your desktop as a webcam so if you cant see it, screencamera cant see it!
1. you need to get screencast showing what is on your phone;
get it via:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=558108
or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=557717
2. download and install screencamera:
http://www.pcwinsoft.com/ScreenCamera/download.asp
3. open screencast and put your phone on the camera application (you can still use the phone don't have to struggle doing it on the computer)
4. open screencamera
go into configuration and change the frame rate to what is appropriate to screencast, i think at the moment its 4fps
go to video output an change the frame size to what you like, i have it at 320 x 420 and have the phone set horizonally on screencast (by right clicking on screencast)
(make sure you have screencast where you want it as you will have to do this step again if you want to move it and make sure you can see it) click on "select region of desktop to capture" and highlight the screen of the camera
done, skype will now see it as that selected area of the desktop as a webcam i cannot confirm if any other application will see it but they should
I believe i was able to capture a livecast event with Video Lan player
Livecast is available for android I believe but i squite the same as quick.
Only livecast made wmv-files.
just tried qik, didn't like it because it didnt have a portrait mode.
wish somebody would make an app for this it would be so much more easyer
i dont like qik cause u have to go to there web site i want to be able to connect my g1 though aim or yahoo web cam

Currently no. If someone can remove the Google Play Licensing Validation, then we could push Tasker. There's an apk called "Lucky Patcher" that removes those sort of validations from apps (probably not legal in the slightest). However, Tasker is one of few that are considerably hard to emulate a paid purchase, causing Lucky Patcher to have no effect. So, no, not currently, but I'm working on removing that restriction and testing.

You're phone, by default, should detect your watch as a media headset or something similar. So, you should be able to use your watch in AutoVoice/Tasker on your phone as a microphone

Autoremote without bluetooth tethering?

Hello,
Is there anyway to get Autoremote to work directly with the Note 3 over bluetooth and not require internet? I'm sure I"m missing something? thanks.
You need internet first to register device in autoremote
After that, you only need standard Bluetooth connection to send commands
@Brendo my bluetooth autoremote seems to work fine.
However if I try to send a notification (not a quick message) via bluetooth it doesn't seem to get received on the gear
Please try and let me know if you can send and receive a NOTIFICATION thanks

Stock notifications aren't available on the gear. You can get the pull down bar in null rom, but even then I don't think it works with all apps. I've not tested though. If you mean the notifications like standard way that gear manager sends notifications, we really need an sdk to work out how to utilize that (there are workarounds where some apps used existing channels)

No, perhaps you misunderstood,
if you go into the autoremote app and select "devices" then there is a small envelope on the right as well as a triangle - these are used to send quick messages and notifications ( by autoremote app )
I can send the message, but not the notification by bluetooth..... however notificatio does work fine by wifi and it gets received by the gear no problem

I understand now. I had a look sending notification via plugin in tasker - which is the same, but didn't realise how notification was sent. Sounds like message uses direct Bluetooth where as notification routes through wifi. Sounds like you'll need to check with dev (may be a bug or unfinished since Bluetooth is recent addition to app?)
I ve got the same problème when i has was in theter i Can send command but without theter the command don t work.

Thank you. I thought I was the only one not able to get this working. I've trying for a week now and everything I found made me feel like I was doing something wrong.
The one thing I've noticed is that when you click and hold the device, and the menu comes up, when I select "connect Bluetooth device, it will say it is connected. But, right after that, it says "not a valid QR code". So I've been wondering if that has anything to do with it.

Ok, regarding the tasker task, does this need to be included in every task? What I mean is, I've already got some autoremote tasks that work when tethered. I want to be able to use them via BT when I'm not on Wifi (that's the only way my tether works).

I've done this and it still doesn't work. Still getting "retrying 1/5" etc. I'm starting to think I must have some other BT connection issue because I've been trying to get the BT GPS sharing working again. It worked a few null roms back but seems to be broken now. I've searched all over the phone and the gear but can't find anything that would be blocking certain BT functions. Everything else works between the phone and the gear (notifications, weather, mini gallery, pedometer backup).

I assume you have done the below, but repeating it for others too....
In Autoremote, on the devices tab, click on the bluetooth icon of each paired autoremote device to switch ON, and turn wifi off ( assume you have already long pressed and "add as Bluetooth device )
If ON, the icon is blue, if off grey

Yep, tried it multiple ways. Like I said, I think I've got some other connection issue. I even tried the Smart Remote app from the gear store and haven't ever been able to get it to connect either. At first I thought it was due to the null rom but others have said it works for them.
I just have no idea what would allow "selective" connections.
Edit: I just noticed that on the phone, in tasker, it shows as an active profile but in the gear it does not. I even set up a generic profile just to pop up a notification. If I test the action it works but the profile still shows as inactive and in the notification panel it still shows "no active profiles" yet all other functions continue to work. Can someone confirm if this is the same on their gear?

I had the same, initially, it took some time on the Gera with Tasker.
Try switch profile off, then on, save reboot, reconnect and have patience.
Instead of connecting to a "named" connection, leave that bank and choose the optional "bluetooth address" in taker profile state

I use autoremote on the gear over bluetooth and it work well with my note 3.
I have tasker which enable bluetooth in gear and note 3 when they connect them in bluetooth.
It work great until the watch goes in deep sleep. At this time the connection is broken until I reboot. I try to enable persistent notification on the gear when tasker enable autoremote bluetooth (to prevent the service to be killed) but at this time I have another problem, the gear and the phone are not able to go in deep sleep so I have a big battery drain.
If someone have ideas to help I'll be very glad.

I rebooted both phone and gear and the first try was successful. Next attempt back to trying. One thing I noticed was that upon restart both taskers showed the Bluetooth profile as active. After the first test the tasker on my phone now shows inactive. Prior to restart it was the gear that showed inactive.
Either way, this is progress. Now to find out why they aren't staying active.

After series of reboots in various orders, this is finally working. Now that it is, I can even say it's much faster than while tethered.
Now I can't wait to get my home automation setup and working. To control it all from the watch is going to be awesome.
Thanks everybody for your support and ideas.

[GUIDE][Intermediate] CHANGE MUSIC BY WAVING: Previous & Next song!

REQUIREMENTS?
TASKER
PHONE WITH PROXIMITY SENSOR
NO ROOT REQUIRED
COMMON SENSE
WHAT Does this do?
This will basically change your music tracks (previous and next) by waving your hand
HOW does it do it?
You hand activates the Proximity sensor (be sure to locate yours before trying this lol) Then it goes into the details by detecting if your hand is still hanging in there, if your hand is not there, it will change to the next track, if your hand is still holding up, it will Rewind the song, do it again and it will change to the previous song.
WHEN do you want to use this?
On Car, You are driving, want to change tracks while driving? well just wave your hand instead of even looking at your phone. (ok you look a bit but you get the idea) No more accidents, looks cool when you do it in front of your newbie friends, yeah go ahead and tell them to do it with their iPhones XD Just remember to paste your phone into a place you can reach or use one of those universal phone holders.
On some desktop for whatever reason you dont have a computer or cant play songs on your pc? Activate this with Bluetooth see magic with a wave of your hands
You want to see the magic and how futuristic it is when you wave and the machine speaks back to you
OK, Lets get Started
Create a Profile, (name it to Prox=1) Select State, Select Proximity Sensor
Task>Variable Set>Name: %Prox to covered
Create Another Profile, (name it to Prox=0)Select State, Select Proximity Sensor But This Time Check on Invert
Task>Variable>Set>Name: %Prox to uncovered
Create Another Profile(name it to Prev and Next), Select State, Select Proximity Sensor
wait (515MS) <---This is an Important Factor on this project, this determines how long your hand should stay in the proximity sensor, the shorter the wait, the faster it will trigger, change as required.
if %Prox ~ uncovered & %SCREEN ~ off
Say: "Next" (Customize the way you like it or just leave it as if)
Media Control Next on App Poweamp (The App "Poweramp" can be changed to the Music App you are using)
Else If %Prox ~ covered & %SCREEN ~ off
Say "Back" (Again, You can customize the voice etc. or.. just dont)
Media Control Previous App Poweramp ( Again, you choose the Music App or else it wont work)
End If
Now you will need to create a Task, Name it to Track Changer Yes.
The Task should contain
Profile Status>name Prox=1 Set On
Profile Status>name Prox=0 Set On
Profile Status>name Prev and Next Set On
Set Tasker Pref>Proximity Sensor Value Yes
What the Above does is to just Activate your Profiles, so that it just works.
If you want to Deactivate those Profiles do another Task, Name the Task to Track Changer No.
The Task should contain
Profile Status>name Prox=1 Set Off
Profile Status>name Prox=0 Set Off
Profile Status>name Prev and Next Set Off
Set Tasker Pref>Proximity Sensor Value when Power Connected
This will deactivate the task and you are back to 0
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If I knew how to make Pictures Appear in the Post (I don't) This would have been easier for you but since life is tough and you need to experience this there you go.
If you need more details look at this Album http://imgur.com/a/eXcch
BTW: To Make this work you need to activate all 3 Profiles, Prox=0, Prox=1 and Prev Next. The Task "Track Changer Yes" will Activate it for you, useful if you activate this task via Bluetooth, Heaphones, etc. You can make a Scene pop when you connect headphones, etc your ideas are your limitation.
If you struggle in some place, look at the tasks and see if any of them has a triangle error in there. Make sure you change the music app on all 2 action tasks! (previous, next)

Well, If it uses Bluetooth, just use tasker to create a profile state on Bluetooth, select the current Bluetooth device. Then for the task of the profile link it to the the task (Track Changer Yes) that activates the 3 profiles, Prox 1, prox 0 and prev and next. As simple as that I recommend you set the exit profile to Track Changer No, So your music does not changes in your pocket or outside of Bluetooth.
**Remember that I set it to only work on screen off so it is not activated accidentally**

Before trying this you need to know the basics of using Tasker, the switcher needs to be "ON" on all 3 profiles.
If by Active you mean the green color, it changes from Prox 0 to Prox 1 depending on your proximity sensor. That is supposed to happen.
To try this, just switch all 3 profiles to ON and turn off your screen have music playing, and move your hand to the proximity sensor.

It should work on all roms, please check the requirements.
check if Prox 1 and 0 turns to green and grey, if it does, it should work, if it doesnt, you have something wrong on your side.
I am having a bit of trouble with this one to. I believe I have it set up right, but I am unable to change music with it. When I have tasker open and put my hand over the proximity sensor "Prox=1" and "Prev and Next" light up green, and when I remove it "Prox=0" lights up green, so that seems right but I still cant change music with it. Any ideas? Thanks
Edit: alright it is working for music now, I actually didn't need to change anything, it just started working lol. I just need some help understanding the tasks to turn it on and off. I don't have anything specific that I'm always doing (like Bluetooth etc) when listening to music to tie it to, I just want it so when I use my music player it turns on and when I'm not using it it turns off. Thoughts?
Works like a charm. Thanks!

thanks for the tip, i gave it a try, this will only open the screen share page on the phone, there is no auto connect option in the app so it wont connect to the cast device actually.

Hi, thanks, but thats exactly what im doing in profile, using the bluetooth connect to car to open the app, but the app doesnt auto connect to the cast device (and there is no option as far as i see in the app todo so), so the point in auto connect to the device cannot be provided like this in my usecase.
thanks for the tip with BT, that is my trigger already to start the action, but the action "auto connect to a cast device" ... is not given to me.

There is a tasker plugin by the same developer called AutoCast. Maybe it will help you.
I don't do any of this, so obviously I don't have any personal experience to offer. You might try on the tasker Google groups forum.

was a great idea, sadly this app (beta state) only supports google devices, no miracast device, but that function would have been the winner, thanks again
Probably a part of the problem is that Google removed miracast support from "stock" android awhile ago. That dates back to the nexus 6 days.

contacted the developer of the autocast plugin and he confirmed, only works with google cast devices like i (sadly) expected.
thanks anyway for the hint.
That's always working to automate the tap(s) required. You could use Tasker to open the app, AutoInput UI query to determine when it's open, then an AutoInput action to enable the device connection.
probably yes, but thats now too much read and trial and error for now, thanks.
