I am trying to search my DLNA device for a list of videos using PowerShell. My code is:
InvokeAction executes successfully, but it doesn't return any data.
if ($service.Id -like "*ContentDirectory*")
{
$objectID="0"
$browseFlag= "upnp:class='object.item.videoItem.movie'"
$filter = ""
$startingIndex = 0
$requestedCount = 0
$sortCriteria=""
$myInObject = @($objectID, $browseFlag, $filter, $startingIndex, $requestedCount, $sortCriteria)
$result=""
$numberReturned=0
$totalMatches=0
$updateId=0
$outArgs = @($result, $numberReturned, $totalMatches, $updateId)
$response = $service.InvokeAction("Search", $myInObject, [ref]$outArgs)
Write-Host $outArgs[0]
Write-Host $outArgs[1]
Write-Host $outArgs[2]
Write-Host $outArgs[3]
}
Can anyone explain to me what is wrong with my code? I am wondering if it is the formatting of the $browseFlag variable, but I have tried every combination of single and double quotes that I can think of, and none of them worked.
As is often the way, I stumbled on the answer shortly after posting the question.
All I did was to change
$outArgs = @($result, $numberReturned, $totalMatches, $updateId)
to
$outArgs = $null
