Hi, I'm looking for a command to get the current playing filename (so not just the currently playing movie title).
Example: moviename 1080p DTSHD.mkv 

Is there a (curl?) command I can use? Preferable a command with username and password in the example.
Something I could use in Home Assistant? Would love to run a script from HA to get the current playing filename from Kodi.

There is a Kodi integration in HA but that shows the movie title and not the filename. 

Tia.

Anybody? Would really love this getting this to work. 
Want too use it to automatically control a masking system for my projection screen.

python:


jsonRequest = xbmc.executeJSONRPC('{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "Player.GetItem", "params": {"properties": ["file"], "playerid": 1}}')

filePath = json.loads(jsonRequest.encode("utf-8"))["result"]["item"]["file"]

fileName = os.path.basename(filePath)

http://localhost:8080/jsonrpc?request={"jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "Player.GetItem", "params": {"properties": ["file"], "playerid": 1}}

Thank you very much!! that works.
Now the next step is getting the "file" data into Home Assistant, will post a question on the HA forum.

How would one do this in BASH from an RPi4 running Raspbian ?

Thanks
