Full Version: Call PVR Sections
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
Hi all,

I cannot seem to figure out if this is possible. I would like to send a command via JSON that directly opens the EPG section of the PVR functionality. I would also like to to call the Recordings section as well.

Are these commands available?
GUI.ActivateWindow. You just need to figure out the proper window name and maybe a PVR-specific path for the section you want to open.
Thanks Montellese.

I have successfully used the following to call the PVR section up.

{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "GUI.ActivateWindow", "params": { "window": "pvr" }, "id": 1 }

What I cannot seem to find any documentation on is how to access sub menus within PVR - such as EPG, Recordings.

My thought process is that something like this 'might' work - but I have no idea where to locate such parameters.

{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "GUI.ActivateWindow", "params": { "window": "pvr", "parameters": [ "recordings" ] }, "id": 1 }

Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
