Hello

I"m trying to read the "name" from a playlist (listitem) as displayed in the playlist. Not the title or episodename, sortname etc.
I've tested with JSON RPC and lot's of approaches via API but I cannot find a way to do that.

Is it possible? Am I missing something?

thanks

If I understand your ask properly then you might want to look here.   The getLabel method might be what you are looking for.

Thanks, but therefore I would need to load the (complete) playlistitem as a xbmc.listitem which seems also impossible.
Therefore I use JSON RPC at the moment and this does not accept a "label" query.

There is no getItem or something similar.

Listitems are individual items in your playlist and if the playlist is already displayed then they make up the individual elements of the displayed playlist.  You can access each listitem but without knowing how the playlist is being loaded I can't really suggest how you access a specific one.  getposition() would work if you are going after the currently positioned item.  A little more context here would help.
