How to get current playlist name?

[stanley87]

Hi all,

Im after a way to grab the current playing playlist name using python in XBMC to add in 2 my ResumeX script.

Any ideas?

There doesnt seem to be this method in Playlist class or in Info Labels which i think there should be.

Any help would be great.

Cheers

You can call httpapi from Python. Have a look at the online manual.
