Deeplink to audio playlist & pictures

[rolzurg 1]

Hi there,

I've been playing with Roku ECP & deeplinking (this thread helped a lot). I don't really like the idea of sequentially launching the app and then start an audio playlist using Emby Remote Control - I'd prefer to fire the playlist directly using ECP. I tried multiple commands based on "curl -v -XPOST http://{ipaddress}:8060/launch/43157?Command=PlayNow&ItemIds=1,2,..." but no luck.

Did anyone manage? Any suggestion?

And I'm also interested to display pictures using ECP. Both PlayNow and DisplayContent won't work...

Thank you!

Hi.  Are you doing this on your local network?

Thanks for the reactions   Yes, on my local network (and not intending to do that remotely)

Exactly what happened?

To be completely honest here, we need to add the "DisplayContent" and a few of the others into the app still. @Luke@ebrWe need #1308 merged.

As far as the "Play" options with images, this will be a problem. We only gave the external controller access to the videoplayer and audioplayer, not the photoplayer. We can add playback support for images to the casting support. This was an oversight and something we forgot. I have added this to our issue tracker.

The command is well received by the player (200 code) and the app starts. But it ends on the Emby main menu, without the content playing.
