Autoconnect improvements #120

Closed the-duck2010 closed 6 months ago

S feature that I think would be very useful is checking for a possible connecting every 5 seconds or something. This way, you don't have to manually press "connect" once the IP address is saved. This could then be used in projects such as TV docks.

Could you explain your use case more? Would a command line parameter to autoconnect with saved settings on startup work? I might try to add some functionality around this to Chokistream if it sounds useful.

My main idea here is to make a docking system similar to the switch to automatically start streaming and broadcasting inputs via InputRedirection to the 3DS to create a console-like feel. Having a way of disconnecting would also be useful in this case. Probably would end up running on a Raspberry Pi.

I like this idea and I'll plan on implementing it. You can track the progress at Eiim/Chokistream#28. We already have backspace to close the connection (hopefully customizable key soon) so that's no issue. No promises on when it'll be done (I haven't been working on Chokistream lately but I'd like to soon) but it's a fairly small task so I'm going to be prioritizing it.
