I don't really like returning XBMC's default images as they are not the real thumbnails. Those are skin-dependant substitutes so you should probably get your own images (or like you said simply copy the ones from confluence or whatever skin you are using) so they match the rest of the design of your software. Otherwise every application using thumbnails returned by JSON-RPC would have to rely on the default images used by the skin each user is currently using.

After working on it more I realized it is much better to return the "" so the client will know there is no image and can substitute there own. I actually posted before I should have sorry. I ended up allowing for anyone using my program to actually replace the images I have so it better fits their needs.

Firstly Montellese many thanks for all your help thus far.
How do I use Player.Open to resume a file, or do I have to play the file first and then send a separate seek command.

Currently that's the only possibility. I'm planning to add a "resume" option though once Eden has been released.

Is there a simple way using the JSON API to retrieve the position of the currently playing media in the active playlist?

Yes just call Player.GetProperties with the "playerid" of the player and ask for the "position" property.

I'd like to be able to control XBMC from Dojo, and was looking for a Service Mapping Description (SMD) file to use with it. Without trying to write the whole thing by hand, about the only thing I could think of was trying to take the output of JSONRPC.Introspect and regexp into the necessary format. I'm pretty new to this stuff, though, so any help would be appreciated.
Montellese, I saw an old post of yours trying to come up with the same thing, did you ever get anywhere with that?

Well I first did the whole Introspect stuff based on SMD but then we discovered that the "transport" property of the SMD is very limited (to HTTP and TCP) but we provide JSON-RPC over HTTP, TCP, Bluetooth and Python and maybe there will be other transports in the future. As we didn't wanna use a specification and not follow it I had to drop the SMD approach and use JSON schema in combination with JSON Service Description instead.
But I'm sure it would be possible to write a script that translates the output of our JSONRPC.Introspect into SMD.

I've been searching for a way to replace HTTP Api SendKey function to fill text fields in XBMC. I can't seem to find a way to do this in JSON or Event Server. I haven't seen any feature requests for this, hence I'm wondering if there already exists a method. Is there a way?
