[SOLVED] How to "Typing" numbers during video to jump to the right time position? - hunadamka - 2021-06-15

(Windows x64 matrix 19.1)

Hi guys,
Sry for my english!

I was wondering if it would be possible to type numbers via Curl while playing video?
I was thinking about e.g.
02342,Return
this would jump to the 23:42 time position of the video

i'm still learning about this json-rpc so far i'm at the point where i can update the video library with this line in batch file Big Grin

.bat
@echo off
curl -i -X POST -d "{\"jsonrpc\": \"2.0\", \"method\": \"VideoLibrary.Scan\", \"id\": \"mybash\"}" -H "content-type:application/json" http://kodi:kodi@localhost:8080/jsonrpc
pause

output:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Connection: Keep-Alive
Content-Type: application/json
Content-Length: 45
Cache-Control: private, max-age=0, no-cache
Accept-Ranges: none
Date: Tue, 15 Jun 2021 18:12:30 GMT

{"id":"mybash","jsonrpc":"2.0","result":"OK"}

I found a very similar thread
but no reply there
JSON command to seek at a specific time

if anyone has any advice or ideas, even if not with curl
but in some other way, I would be happy to hear them!

I finally solved it but in a little different way

with this example I have saved the position of the video 27:45
change to 2745{enter}
save.bat

Code:

cd kodi

docker run -it screenbreak/singlefile-dockerized http://kodi:[email protected]:8080 > log.html

xidel -s log.html -e "<div class='playing-time-current'>{inner-html()}</div>" > time.txt

for /f "tokens=1,2,3 delims=:" %%G IN (time.txt) do (echo %%G%%H%%I{enter}) >load-pos.stro

del /f log.html

del /f time.txt

exit

with this save.bat I evaded the access denied error message
save-pos.bat

Code:
cd kodi

start /B "" "c:\kodi\save.bat"

exit

and this will type this 2745{enter} directly into the screen of the kodi
load-pos.bat

Code:

@echo off

start /B "" "c:\kodi\WinSendKeys.exe" -f "c:\kodi\load-pos.stro" kodi

exit

then I added keyboard.xml to the two buttons of my remote control

Code:
<f1 mod="ctrl,alt">System.ExecWait(""c:\kodi\save-pos.bat"")</f1>

<f4 mod="ctrl,alt">System.ExecWait(""c:\kodi\load-pos.bat"")</f4>

requirements:
WinSendKeys.exe
xidel.exe
docker desktop
singlefile-dockerized

With difficulty but I succeeded re-writing it in python and no more pop-up window Smile

just copy the pynput folder from this file pynput-1.7.3.tar.gz (under lib directory) to where the .py files are
and you need to rewrite your ip,port,user and pass

after saving the position, these will appear in the save.txt file
example:

full path to the video file
003908
Mr. & Mrs. Smith

(the title of the video is just for information only, nothing to do with it)

because save.py also creates a bookmark with position it only works under Kodi

add to the buttons (keyboard.xml)

Code:
<keymap>

<global>

<keyboard>

<f1 mod="ctrl,alt">RunScript("c:\sleepy\save-pos.py")</f1>

<f4 mod="ctrl,alt">RunScript("c:\sleepy\load-pos.py")</f4>

<home>RunScript("c:\sleepy\save-pos.py")</home>

<end>RunScript("c:\sleepy\load-pos.py")</end>

</keyboard>

</global>

<keymap>

if your skin supports it, you can add this command and launch it from the main screen
RunScript("c:\sleepy\load-pos.py")

save-pos.py

Code:
import json

import base64

import requests

import xbmc

credentials = b'kodi:kodi'

encoded_credentials = base64.b64encode(credentials)

authorization = b'Basic ' + encoded_credentials

headers = { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'Authorization': authorization }

url = 'http://192.168.1.10:8080/jsonrpc?Base'

data = [

    {"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"Player.GetProperties","params":[1,["time"]],"id":17},

    {"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"Player.GetItem","params":[1,["file"]],"id":18}]

response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, data=json.dumps(data))

result = response.json()

h,m,s = map(int, [result[0]['result']['time'][val] for val in ['hours','minutes','seconds']])

time = f'{h:02}{m:02}{s:02}'

print(result[1]['result']['item']['file'],time,result[1]['result']['item']['label'], sep='\n', file=open("c:\\sleepy\\save.txt", "w"))

xbmc.executebuiltin('Action(CreateBookmark)')

load-pos.py

Code:

import requests

import time

import os

import webbrowser



file = open("c:\\sleepy\\save.txt")

lines2 = file.readlines()

url = lines2[0].split('\n')[0]



headers = {

    'Content-Type': 'application/json',

}



data = {"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"Player.Open","params":{"item":{"file":url}}}

requests.post('http://kodi:[email protected]:8080/jsonrpc?Base', headers = headers, json = data)



file = open("c:\\sleepy\\save.txt")

lines = file.readlines()

line = lines[1]



os.startfile("c:\\Program Files\\Kodi\\kodi.exe")

from pynput.keyboard import Key, Controller as K

time.sleep(3)

K().type(line+'  ')

for anyone who finds it easier I put it on MEGA
