JSON command to start youtube video - extremeaudio - 2022-01-23
I'm trying to get to fire up a youtube video by sending a URL to my kodi box.
I put together info from a few resources and constructed the following command to issue from a browser but I'm getting an error. Can someone help correct it please?
Code:
http://192.168.1.52:8080/jsonrpc?request='{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":"1","method":"Player.Open","params":{"item":{"file":"plugin://plugin.video.youtube/?action=play_video&videoid='szjaHbjhauk'"}}}I'm getting the error
{"error":{"code":-32700,"message":"Parse error."},"id":null,"jsonrpc":"2.0"}

Anyone can help with this? Sorry to bump. Even a link to demystifying these JSON constructs would help. Thanks.
