Manual Player not working

Setup, Configuration and Use Items & Sitemaps

Hello,
my manual created player is not working
How to get it work?

Item:
Player SW_PLAYER "Player" <player> { http=">[PLAY:POST:http://Markus-Fernseher:8085/sendrcpackage?keyid=-2548&keysymbol=-4015] >[PAUSE:POST:http://Markus-Fernseher:8085/sendrcpackage?keyid=-2480&keysymbol=-4086] >[NEXT:POST:http://Markus-Fernseher:8085/sendrcpackage?keyid=-2546&keysymbol=-4004] >[PREVIOUS:POST:http://Markus-Fernseher:8085/sendrcpackage?keyid=-2538&keysymbol=-4005]", autoupdate="false" }

Sitemap:
Default item=SW_PLAYER

/var/log/openhab2/openhab.log does not contain any log when I press one of the buttons in the player
The http-requests work from a normal browser.

Thanks for the help

Any ideas - anyone?

Personally i haven’t used the HTTP binding, but i would suggest that you set the bindings logging to debug in the karaf console.

If you do not now the correct name, type

bundlet:list -s

and it should show all the active bundles and thus also your http binding.
Assuming the name is

org.openhab.binding.http

Just type

log:set DEBUG org.openhab.binding.http

You now should see some additional information once you trigger your item

Thanks for the help, but the Problem is not the using of the http-plugin
The Problem is the Player and I don’t know how to manually fill those 4 buttons.

Understood - you could alternatively set up a rule for that:

rule "Player_Control_Handler"

when
	Item SW_PLAYER received command
then
	
	switch receivedCommand
	{
		case PLAY:
		{
			sendHttpGetRequest(...)
		}
		
		case PAUSE:
		{
			sendHttpGetRequest(...)
		}
		
		
		case PREVIOUS:
		{
			sendHttpGetRequest(...)
		}
		
		case NEXT:
		{
			sendHttpGetRequest(...)
		}
	}
end

Maybe not the elegant way, but if you do not succeed to use the http binding directly from the item, it would be an easy workaround.
