FileBot

Posted: **18 Oct 2016, 01:41**

I've recently been in the process of setting up filebot with qbittorrent and kodi. I seem to have all my naming issues and run program triggers all set, but I'm now having issues getting kodi to trigger a library scan. I get the following error...

Code: Select all

I've searched and haven't really found the reason for an http 400 error. My Kodi system is on OpenElec 6(kodi v15). Media is on a cifs share via smb://server/tvshows or smb://server/movies. Any other ways I can troubleshoot this?

Did you Enable JSON-RPC (via HTTP) yet?

Please ask the Kodi people about Kodi setup issues: http://forum.kodi.tv/

I ended up figuring this out. After enabling the following...

Code: Select all

Settings --> Network --> Remote Control --> Allow Programs on other systems to control Kodi

I noticed a new port opened up after scanning the OpenElec/Kodi system. Port 9090. From my searching, I was under the impression that filebot would use this port since it didn't use an HTTP API, but rather a TCP API. As mentioned in this post. viewtopic.php?t=2759#p15667

It turns out that the port specified in the following setting is what port Filebot uses to correctly send a library update. Default for OpenElec was 80.

Code: Select all

Settings --> Network --> Webserver --> Port

Yay!

FileBot is now using the HTTP API. It'll default to port 8080 if not otherwise specified.

Thanks for responding rednoah. Is there documentation somewhere that I was missing? I hate to be a bother on forums if the information is already out there.

The log should be self-explanatory:

Code: Select all

GET: http://192.168.20.13:80/jsonrpc?request=...

HTTP => It's using the HTTP API
192.168.20.13 => It's using the HOST you pass in
80 => It's using the PORT you pass in (and you'll see the default port if you don't)
