NumberFormatException occurred

Dear all,

While trying to use the CDS API I do not manage to get something playing. It looks like I am not getting past the REST layer ...

Using Python code as in the documentation :

  Code:

            Values = \
                {
                'action'   : 'play' ,
                'objectId' : UrlComponents[5] ,
                'parentId' : UrlComponents[6] ,
                }
            Values = json.dumps( Values )

            Headers = \
                {
                'Content-Type' : 'application/json' ,
                'Accept'       : 'application/json' ,
                }

            Url = 'http://{}:{}/{}'.format( ServiioServer , ServiioPort , ServiioUrl )

            Logger.info( "Url     : {}".format( Url     ) )
            Logger.info( "Headers : {}".format( Headers ) )
            Logger.info( "Values  : {}".format( Values  ) )

            request = Request( Url , data=Values , headers = Headers )
            response_body = urlopen(request).read()
            print response_body

With following debug Logger.info output :

  Code:

2017-01-08 11:40:42,546 - __main__ - INFO - Components : ['', 'serviioproxy', 'cds', 'control', '67b0de4a-e7de-4ab9-7ad7-4a09e7b9ee57', 'A_F^FOL*R5$F2547$F2558$F2559$F2563$MI159818', 'A_F^FOL*R5$F2547$F2558$F2559$F2563']

The serviio returns me a HTTP 500 mentioning in its log :

  Code:

2017-01-08 11:40:42,557 WARN  [ServiioStatusService] NumberFormatException occurred. Returning error code 500 to the REST layer. Message: For input string: "R5$F2547$F2558$F2559$F2563$MI159818"

I am out of ideas as what could go wrong or how to correct.

Any helping hand ?

Thanks,

Jos

For what it is worth, some additional info :

I did try exactly the same but posting xml. The error is exactly the same.

  Code:

    <parentId>A_F^FOL*R5$F2547$F2558$F2559$F2563</parentId>
</controllerAction>

Stuck ...

oh, ok - this is still in Beta and not even been advertised

Can you try to use a different ID's than from the Folders category? Try something from the Movies category for example.

Hmz. Not being advertised. The API was the one that made me decide I absolutely needed the PRO version

Now, having said that, I don't know what went wrong or where, but in the end it works now. I *guess* that after all there must have been something wrong with the id/parentId combination.
