v20 How to make the media filter show on the screen
#1
Hi I'm using the Kodi v12 and was trying to make a jsonrpc call out to make the media filter show up on the GUI. 
I tried sending {"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"GUI.ActivateWindow","params":{"window":"mediafilter"},"id":1}
and it shows the media dialog but its contents is empty instead of showing all the different choices to filter on.
I am using the rapier skin and if I navigate to it directly it works just trying to have a short cut from a remote to open it up.
Anyone know how to do this ?

Also want to have the search dialog show up too.

Thanks.

Has no one else trying to make a media filter show up on the screen ? I basically want a short cut so when I press a filter button on the remote it shows the filtering criteria on the screen and then choose options from my remote ? Using touchcontrol app which is able to do the needed json calls but just having a hard time to get the right call to open the correct window. 
I know you can get filtered results via other json calls but thats only getting returned in the json response but I want it to show on the big screen visually. 

If its not clear what I am asking for please ask me and I'll try to add pictures or something. thanks.
