Retrieves information about the specified video output.
Segments
connector
: The current value is always hdmi
device
: This value is 0
for single-output Series 5 players and all Series 4 and older players. The value can be 0
-3
for the XC4055, which has multiple outputs, and 0
or 1
for the XC2055 and XT2145.
Request Example
The example request parameters and headers are set as follows:

is set to hdmi
:device
is set to 0
GET /api/v1/video/hdmi/output/0/ HTTP/1.1 Host: {{playerIP}} Authorization: {{DigestAuth}} Accept: application/json |
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 Example
