Yes that should work.

The "id" we are talking about here comes from the JSON-RPC 2.0 specification and has nothing to do with XBMC itself. Generally JSON-RPC can't assure that when you send request A and then B that you will first receive the response for request A and then the response for request B. It could be the other way around. So by specifying a "unique" "id" value for every request you can use the "id" value returned in the response to match a request with a response. What most people do is just use an integer value and increment it with every request they make. the "playerid" in XBMC's Player methods are something totaly different and are very XBMC-specific.

I have had a pretty good read of these posts and the changes.
I am a novice but I spent a bit of time writing a simple text based remote control to run on my Linux desktop, mainly so I didn't have to keep picking my phone up to skip tracks and so I could play internet radio steams et..
These are the commands I used per Eden, which worked well for my basic needs.
The http stuff obviously still works but needs to be rewritten when that channel is fully removed, but I am having issues updating my commands for the JSON-RPC API v4

curl -i -X POST -d '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "AudioLibrary.ScanForContent", "id": "1"}' http://192.168.0.50:8080/jsonrpc ;;

I hoped it would be a simple change to the following

curl -i -X POST -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"Player.PlayPause","params":{"playerid":1}}' http://192.168.0.50:8080/jsonrpc
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Length: 0
Content-Type: application/json
Date: Sun, 03 Jun 2012 15:13:04 GMT

OR

curl -i -X POST -d '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Player.PlayPause", "params": { "playerid": 1 }, "id": 1}' http://192.168.0.50:8080/jsonrpc
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Length: 86
Content-Type: application/json
Date: Sun, 03 Jun 2012 15:39:08 GMT

{"error":{"code":-32100,"message":"Failed to execute method."},"id":1,"jsonrpc":"2.0"}

but neither of these appear to work, yet it also doesn't return any errors and I was really hoping for a pointer in the right direction.
XBMC Eden is running in standalone on Ubuntu 10.04 base
Many Thanks.

I have just committed a change that adds an "end" parameter to the Player.OnStop notification. If it's value is true the player has reached the end of the playable item(s). If it's false the player was (manually) stopped before having finished playback. Hope that's good enough for your purposes.

Sorry for not answering earlier but there was also a bug report on trac about this a few days ago and I fixed it. Can you check if it works again for you in latest master? Thanks.
