Hi!

I am working with XBMC for XBOX and I noticed that the HTTP API does not work as (I) expected:

Adding a file to playlist using
http://xbox/xbmcCmds/xbmcHttp?command=Ad...oo\bar.mp3)
does not have an effect on the playlist shown in XBMC.

However the file is returned when I issue
http://xbox/xbmcCmds/xbmcHttp?command=Ge...Contents(0)

If I am issuing
http://xbox/xbmcCmds/xbmcHttp?command=PlayNext%28%29
afterwards, all playlist items are shown but none is played.


Playing a file using
http://xbox/xbmcCmds/xbmcHttp?command=Pl...oo\bar.mp3)
leads to the file being played but it does not show up in the playlist in XBMC.

Obtaining the playlist using
http://xbox/xbmcCmds/xbmcHttp?command=Ge...Contents(0)
does not return the file in this case.


I think I am using this correctly, am I? Could this be a bug?

Thanks,

We no longer support xbox, and we also no longer support the HTTP-API - it's depreciated. The good folk over at xbmc4xbox may be able to help you out.

D'oh! The HTTP API wiki page should be updated on this. I started to build an application on the HTTP API and did not worry about that, since the page still conveys the impression that it is supported.

What exactly does deprecated mean for you? Will the HTTP API be taken out in the next release of the non-XBOX XBMC (or is it already taken out?).

Thanks,

After Dharma it will be removed, yes.

I'll look at updating the wiki.
