Touch Bar Preset to toggle AirPlay Screen Mirroring. I have been able to hack together this AppleScript preset. Button Icon will change blue when airplay is active, and on press, will toggle on/off airplay.

This preset requires you to change the AppleScript Action script/code to reflect the NAME of your AppleTV (same name in Display Menu) or other AirPlay video device. Also requires you have the **"Show mirroring options in the menu bar when available"** selected in MacOS System Preferences | Display Preferences.

**Still working out the bugs...** Sometimes you need to press twice to activate or deactivate AirPlay Mirroring.

# DO NOT INSTALL THIS.

- It doesn't have anything related to airplay (that I could find)
- It will add HUNDREDS of random triggers.
  - It takes forever to undo the mess it creates
  - If you do install it, MAKE A BACKUP FIRST so it's easy to undo the mess it causes

Hopefully this wasn't malware. I didn't have time to read the hundreds of scripts it added. If all my passwords are hacked then I guess I'll know later.

Most likely, it was just OP not knowing how to save triggers, and they saved their entire BTT.
