Kodi Community Forum - musicbrainz id's not returned according to json-rpc schema

AudioLibrary.GetSongDetails and AudioLibrary.GetSongs return musicbrainzalbumartistid and musicbrainzartistid as arrays instead of string as defined in the json-rpc schema. Kodi 15.2 was returning the correct values. Tested on Kodi 17.0-ALPHA1 (compiled dec 12 2015)

Request

Code:
http://localhost:8080/jsonrpc?request={%22jsonrpc%22:%222.0%22,%22method%22:%22AudioLibrary.GetSongDetails%22,%22params%22:{%22songid%22:1,%22properties%22:[%22musicbrainztrackid%22,%22musicbrainzartistid%22,%22musicbrainzalbumid%22,%22musicbrainzalbumartistid%22]},%22id%22:3}

Returns

Code:
{

    "songdetails": {

        "label": "Apple Tree",

        "musicbrainzalbumartistid": [],

        "musicbrainzalbumid": "",

        "musicbrainzartistid": [

            ""

        ],

        "musicbrainztrackid": "",

        "songid": 1

    }

}

and

Code:
http://localhost:8080/jsonrpc?request={"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"AudioLibrary.GetSongs","params":{"properties":["musicbrainztrackid","musicbrainzartistid","musicbrainzalbumid","musicbrainzalbumartistid"],"limits":{"end":1,"start":0}},"id":4}

returns

Code:
{

    "limits": {

        "end": 1,

        "start": 0,

        "total": 13740

    },

    "songs": [

        {

            "label": "Apple Tree",

            "musicbrainzalbumartistid": [],

            "musicbrainzalbumid": "",

            "musicbrainzartistid": [],

            "musicbrainztrackid": "",

            "songid": 1

        }

    ]

}

v17 eh, a real pioneer...

I posted this issue some time ago, the reply was that arrays are what they should have always been, it makes sense as its a much better way to report multiple artists.
And still a single marquee artist can still be displayed as DisplayArtist i think...
So yep this is they way it is since v16.

Not really. Just using the ubuntu nightly build ppa on one of my systems to occasionally check if my app still works ;-)

The change is fine with me. However the json-rpc schema description ( http://127.0.0.1:8080/jsonrpc ) isn't up to date.
