Vincent, thanks again. Unfortunately the Java escape sequence is not accepted, but taken as syntax error. (See screen-shot) - Sitemap stops showing when trying it.
Christoph - thanks much for your hint. I will try to upgrade to the milestone version. - Any idea how I could at least make a static mapping for the playfavorite of the kodi binding work in 2.3? Or the playuri command?. Is there a syntax how to insert a parameter (such as the URI) in an item channel specification? In the kodi binding documentation playuri it is clearly spefified as:
playuri String Plays the file with the provided URI
so how can I provide the URI along with the item (or sitemap) definition?
Thank you for your support! Othmar
