I'm freaking out because of this tiny little problem:
Whatever I do, XBMC fails to parse my JSON-RPC requests

This is my code:

Code:

query = {
            'jsonrpc': '5.0',
            'method': 'Player.GetItem',
            'params': {
                'playerid': 0,
                'properties': ['imdbnumber']
            }
        }
json_string = xbmc.executeJSONRPC(json.dumps(query))

...and this is what I get:

Code:

ERROR: JSONRPC: Failed to parse '{"jsonrpc":"5.0","method":"Player.GetItem","params":{"playerid":0,"properties":["imdbnumber"]}}'

What am I doing wrong?

PS. I'm running XBMC 13.0

jsonrpc:2.0 , not 5.0

Oh. Thought it was the JSON-RPC API version!

Does that fix it?

Because I thought the API needed an ID number in order to send back the results.

Nope that did not fix it, and you are correct. I discovered later on (using JSON Browser found here on the forum) that an ID is needed. I do not know where in the docs it says that, at least I couldn't find it. So yeah, now it works!
