Response Body

• resolutions resolutions[ ]: An array of information about the graphics, output, video resolution. Returns result values for height and width.

• edid_identity: Parses the above string in a JSON format for readability. Requires an HDMI output connected to the player and a display.

• edid string: Returns the EDID read string of the display connected to the player. If power save is on, zeroes will be returned

• status:

  • audioBitsPerSample int: The number of bits per audio sample

  • audioChannelCount int: The number of audio channels in the output

  • audioFormat string: The format of the audio output. A "PCM" value indicates that the player is sending decoded output.

  • audioSampleRate int: The audio sample rate (in hertz)

  • eotf string: The current electro-optical transfer function (EOTF) used by the display. The following are possible values:

    • "HDR (GAMMA)"

    • "SDR (GAMMA)"

    • "SMPTE 2084 (PQ)"

    • "Future (BBC/NHK)"

    • "unspecified"

  • outputPowered bool: A flag indicating whether the display device is on (i.e. RX powered) 

  • outputPresent bool: A flag indicating whether the HDMI output is connected to a display device or not.

  • unstable bool: A flag indicating whether the display signal is unstable or stable

• modes: List of all available video modes on the player.

• activeMode: Information about the active video mode on the player

• bestMode string: The best video mode for the player. The HDMI connector must be attached because it gets details from EDID result.

• configuredMode: The configured video mode on the player. This can be different than activeMode.

• powerSaveStatus bool: This value indicates the power save status of the display connected to the player.

...

Response Body

• is_connected bool: A flag indicating whether the monitor is connected to the HDMI output on the player

• is_powered bool: A flag indicating whether the monitor is on (for example, RX powered) 

• enabled bool: A flag indicating whether power-save mode has been enabled on the HDMI/VGA output

...

Returns an arrayof video mode objects, each of which contain the following parameters:

• modeName string: The mode (for example, “1920x1080x60p”)

• colorDepth string: The color depth of the video signal

• colorSpace string: The color space of the video signal (“rgb”, "yuv420", or "yuv422")

• dropFrame bool: Whether or not the video timecode uses drop frame

• frequency int: The frame rate of the video output

• width int: The width of the video output

• height int: The height of the video output

• graphicsPlaneWidth int: The width of the graphics plane

• graphicsPlaneHeight int: The height of the graphics plane

• interlaced bool:  Whether or not the video output is interlaced

• overscan bool: Whether or not the video output is using an overscan setting or not

• preferred bool: Whether or not video is the preferred mode

...

Each of these parameters delivers a different mode value:

• best int optional: If set to 1, this returns the best mode

• active int optional: If set to 1, this returns the active mode

• configured int optional: If set to 1, this returns the configured mode
