[Idea] Quick toggle dis/connect to Bluetooth audio device
« on: February 13, 2014, 10:44 AM »
The quickest thing I could find to connect them is to create a shortcut to the bluetooth device (in my case, BT speakers) and then from there click on "Listen to music" .

To be clear, here's a screenshot of what I get with the shortcut Windows 7 gives me: Screenshot%202014-02-13%2011.34.58[1].png (69.9 KB) or https://www.dropbox.com/s/kp4l34bm2hi4zfx/Screenshot%202014-02-13%2011.34.58.png

And from there I have to wait until it polls or something before I see the "Listen to music" link and I'm able to click it.

I'd like a quick way to connect/disconnect to this, eliminating those extra clicks.

A bit of script incorporating EndPointController.exe might help. See here.
