Hi,
I have XBMC 11.0 installed on Ubuntu 10.04. There is a problem: the response in JSON RPC does not have new lines for each line. For example:

Request:
{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Application.GetProperties", "params":{"properties":["volume", "name", "muted", "version"]}, "id":5}

Response:
{"id":5,"jsonrpc":"2.0","result":{"muted":false,"name":"XBMC","version":{"major":11,"minor":0,"revision":"Unknown","tag":"stable"},"volume":80}}

If I run the XBMC 11.0 on Mac (Lion), I got the response formatted as below:

{
"id": 5,
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"result": {
"muted": false,
"name": "XBMC",
"version": {
"major": 11,
"minor": 0,
"revision": "20120321-14feb09",
"tag": "stable"
},
"volume": 55
}
}

My question: how can I make XBMC on Ubuntu also respond JSON request with new lines for each line in its XML text?

Thanks.
Han

There's an advancedsetting called <compactoutput> (see http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Use...jsonrpc.3E) which you can set to "false" and you'll get pretty-printed results. But this is only meant for developers using JSON-RPC to be able to easier read the responses from XBMC. You shouldn't rely on it being disabled (compact output is the default).
