I found API GUI.ActivateWindow but I can't understand parameters of this API.


PHP Code:
"minItems": 1, 
      "items": {
        "minLength": 1, 
        "type": "string"
      }, 
      "name": "parameters", 
      "type": "array"

Understood:
{ "jsonrpc":"2.0", "id" : "1", "method" : "GUI.ActivateWindow", "params" : { "window":"videos", "parameters": ["smb://HUNTER-PC/films"] } }
{ "jsonrpc":"2.0", "id" : "1", "method" : "GUI.ActivateWindow", "params" : { "window":"music", "parameters": ["smb://HUNTER-PC/music"] } }
{ "jsonrpc":"2.0", "id" : "1", "method" : "GUI.ActivateWindow", "params" : { "window":"pictures", "parameters": ["smb://HUNTER-PC/pictures"] } }

In case you haven't seen it yet there is a list of window ids in the wiki
http://kodi.wiki/view/Opening_Windows_and_Dialogs

You can use the following generic request to show video -> sources
{ "jsonrpc":"2.0", "id" : "1", "method" : "GUI.ActivateWindow", "params" : { "window":"videos", "parameters": ["sources://video/"] } }
