Copy and paste the below I am using it for my needs but it is easily customizable. Thank you all as I have trolled around these forums to gather some of this information
It could use cleaned up and if people find it useful I will release a future version with some better error handling and documentation. I am also casually adding more alias's as I need.
Feel free to update, recycle and reuse however you see fit.
Output of help:
ALIAS'S AVAILABLE:
totalunwatched
setcurrentplaylist
totalrecords
totalwatched
clearplaylist
gotomusic
getcurrentlyplaying
togglewatched
recentlyseen
cleanlibrary
updatevideolibrary
playfile
addtoplaylist
recentlyadded
getplaylistcontents
Simply run script eg scriptname.py gotomusic
You may run any command that the httpapi supports as a parameter eg "command=ExecBuiltIn¶meter=XBMC.UpdateLibrary(video)"
Not that the " and " are very important
