Hi,

I'm new with Json and with Google Home Mini

Is there a way in json to select the main menues items in Kodi such as Music, Programs, Videos, System, ... ?

thanks

understanding your new with the json api, I'm finding your question a bit ambiguous

perhaps first explain what your looking to do, navigate the built in ui or create an interface of your own.

I'm not familiar with Google home but I imagine controlling the UI is all you can do with it. IMHO the json api doesn't mix well with controlling the built in ui, for that create add-on scripts.

hi,

How can i invoke a specific menu option within an addon like ccCloudTV, then i choose english and also i will like also to invoke the search menu of ccCloud Tv addon

thanks

the easiest way to figure that out is to right-click on those menu options and select 'add to favourites'.

next, open your favourites.xml file and look for the ActivateWindow() commands for those menu options.

Oh ya, there's the GUI namespace...
And ive used the 'add to favorites' as a quick and dirty short cut for certain things myself.  good advise.
