How to get "Play Now" queue

[altexy 0]

Hi, I'm implementing a client for Emby server.

I need to remote control remote devices.

 

I cannot find any API to get items in the "Play Now" queue.

Can you help me?

 

Thanks in advance

In Kodi, we use the websocket to receive Play Now commands which contain the list of Items to play.

 

Hope this helps somehow: https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby/wiki/Web-Socket   https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby/wiki/Remote-control

Thanks for response!

So, using websocket notifications I may maintain the copy of the queue myself.

You'll at least know the items for play now, yes. What exactly are you looking to do with the list? Maybe there's a better way to achieve what you are looking for?

I use HTTP and websocket API from RTI XP Processor driver written in JS.

How Emby web client show this list?

I think it would only show this information when it was the one who created the list in the first place...

It looks like only PlayNow command is implemented. When I provide PlayLast or PlayNext as described in 

https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby/wiki/Remote-control#sending-a-play-command

the result is the same as with PlayNow.

IMO all client implement this functionality on client side.

some clients have implemented it.

I developed only REST/websocket API client and a model for a customer as closed source project.

I don't know anything about its destiny.
