I want to use json/rpc in order to get the currently playing item in the XBMC, I'm using the following commands for all the player types:
- to getting the Active player :
- And to getting the currently playing item due to it's result:
Now, I have three different cases:
1- if the currently playing item is a "movie":
every thing works very efficient.
2- if the currently playing item is a "song":
the result set contains not only the currently playing song but all the songs of the album that contains the currently playing song.
3- if the currently playing item is a "tvShow episode":
the result set is empty like if there is nothing currently playing.
- to getting the Active player :
Code:
{ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Player.GetActivePlayers", "id": 1}- And to getting the currently playing item due to it's result:
Code:
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"Playlist.GetItems","params":{"playlistid":playlist.id,"properties":["title","rating","season","episode","plot","runtime","showtitle","thumbnail", "year","genre"]},"id":1}Now, I have three different cases:
