Hello,

I just tested this to change the volume:

http://192.168.1.1:8080/requests/status.json?command=volume&val=200

with the ip where vlc is executed, and val of value 0 to 256 corresponds to the volume from 0 to 100%

On the other hand during the first connection, VLC requests a password (without user name), to define in advanced preference / main interface / Lua / Lua by HTTP
So there is a window that opens to authenticate and put the password in it, of course you would have to put this password in the URL link, I tried this syntax but it does not work:

Code: Select all

http://[email protected]:8080/requests/status.json?command=volume&val=200

Do you have any idea why ??

just a guess, but the http syntax is

Code: Select all

http://username:[email protected]/

if you only need the password send, would it be

Code: Select all

http://:[email protected]:8080/requests/status.json?command=volume&val=200

just my $.02

correct syntax :

Code: Select all

os.execute('curl -u :password "http://192.168.1.5:8080/requests/status.xml?command=volume&val=256" ')

Request http for VLC :
