Retrieve uPNP Status via JSON? - mossywell - 2012-12-16
Frodo RC1
Does anyone know if it is possible to use JSON RPC to detect if XBMC is acting as a uPNP media server? I tried GetActivePlayers but that was an empty array (unsurprisingly). I checked out the online documentation and did a search for upnp but it didn't show anything.
TIA

The only way to access upnp through JSON-RPC is to use Files.GetDirectory with a "upnp://" path. But it won't tell you whether it's active or not.

Thanks for the quick reply. At least it means I didn't mess up searching the documentation.
I'll see what I can do at the OS level instead then (though it's probably UDP making it a bit trickier.)
