XBMC - Get Currently Playing

Post by andrew.vint » Sun Sep 28, 2014 4:49 pm

I downloaded on this very forum some dc1 files that had commands and a template project for the control and display of XBMC data.

I have the latest version of XBMC running (13.2 Gotham) and through trial and error none of the HTTP commands seemed to work but in the end the JSON ones did.

I have the following JSON command I found on the internet which should be getting me the information I need;

jsonrpc?{"jsonrpc": "2.0","method": "Player.GetItem","params": {"properties": ["title","album","artist","season","episode","duration","showtitle","tvshowid","thumbnail","file","fanart","streamdetails"],"playerid": 1},"id": "VideoGetItem"}

However it is not working, I have the dynamic labels in place (I believe);

I also have the dynamic labels placed on a working screen with a button that should go and get all the Info

And finally here is the additional details

I am not sure where I am making a mistake but any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Hi Andrew

Look at the project i sent you, I have XBMC setup, look at the device 2 way configuration, this is where the feedback is happening from XBMC, then it sends the feeback to the label.
