Hello,

Trying to teach myself some python programming and am trying to get information from the video db with no success. Could someone have a look at this query and perhaps let me know if they see anything wrong? It doesn't seem to work in either Kodi 17 or 18.

Thank you!
Mark

python:
# import the kodi python modules we are going to use

# see the kodi api docs to find out what functionality each module provides

import xbmc

import xbmcgui

import xbmcaddon

import json



def log(txt, mylevel=xbmc.LOGNOTICE):



    """

    Logs to Kodi's standard logfile

    """

    message = '%s : %s' % ("testwindow", txt)

    xbmc.log(msg=message, level=mylevel)



json_query = xbmc.executeJSONRPC('{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "VideoLibrary.GetMovies", "params": {"filter": {"field": "playcount", "operator": "is", "value": "1"}, "properties" : ["file"], "id": "libMovies"}} ')    





log("Raw json returned was %s" % json_query, xbmc.LOGINFO)

log("This is a test line to test logging")

The only entry I get in the log is this: 16:31:45.022 T:6536  NOTICE: testwindow : This is a test line to test logging

Thank you,
Mark

you have one misplaced bracket in your query.

this should work
{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "VideoLibrary.GetMovies", "params": {"filter": {"field": "playcount", "operator": "is", "value": "1"}, "properties" : ["file"]}, "id": "libMovies"}
