DOH!  Nevermind, I fat-fingered the IP address - it's working!  No I just need to tweak my JSON strings for a few buttons that I need to open specific windows.

Well done

Thanks - trial and error and a little slow to connect the dots between JSON, built-in functions , Action IDs and Window IDs.  The only thing I'm still struggling with it how to enter a path to the contents of a specific Windows folder in a couple of the JSON commands.  Specifically: Computer/Concerts(L/Concerts - which would then display the concert videos in that folder.

Here's the string that doesn't work - jsonrpc?request={"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"GUI.ActivateWindow","params":{"window":"library://concerts/concerts/,return"},"id":"1"}}

I've pulled out a lot of hair over the past week, so a quick tip would be very useful.

Can't help you there I'm afraid. But I can offer another way of doing it if you care..
MAybe simply create a playlist based on the folder and then open that with a command? But maybe I am not understanding what you are trying to do.
Good luck regardless.

I think I'll just be stuck in JSON trial and error for a while.  Thanks for your help.
