xbmcCmds 404 Error

Dev Community Dev/API Corner

Hi-

 

I'm trying to access the GetCurrentlyPlaying data from the xmbcHttp api but when query this:

http://$IP_ADDRESS:32400/xbmcCmds/xbmcHttp?command=GetCurrentlyPlaying

I get a 404 error.

 

This however works:

http://$IP_ADDRESS:32400/web/

Has the xmbcHttp API been deprecated?

 

Any ideas what could be going on?

 

Thanks

xbmcCmds are not part of the Plex Media Server, they are (or used to be?) part of the desktop client. The default port is not 32400 (which is the default port of the Plex Media Server). I think it is/was port 3000.
