Got status 500 when invoking /MediaRenderer/AVTransport/Control

[sli-cka]

When I try to Linein my living room speakers to the HDMI connected TV, i receive the following error:

"Error: Got status 500 when invoking /MediaRenderer/AVTransport/Control\n at Object.invoke (/home/pi/node-sonos-http-api-master/node_modules/sonos-discovery/lib/helpers/soap.js:99:10)\n at Player.setAVTransport (/home/pi/node-sonos-http-api-master/node_modules/sonos-discovery/lib/models/Player.js:727:15)\n at Object.linein (/home/pi/node-sonos-http-api-master/lib/actions/linein.js:17:29)\n at handleAction (/home/pi/node-sonos-http-api-master/lib/sonos-http-api.js:117:35)\n at HttpAPI.requestHandler (/home/pi/node-sonos-http-api-master/lib/sonos-http-api.js:94:21)\n at /home/pi/node-sonos-http-api-master/server.js:50:13\n at Server.finish (/home/pi/node-sonos-http-api-master/node_modules/node-static/lib/node-static.js:111:13)\n at finish (/home/pi/node-sonos-http-api-master/node_modules/node-static/lib/node-static.js:170:14)\n at /home/pi/node-sonos-http-api-master/node_modules/node-static/lib/node-static.js:144:17\n at FSReqWrap.oncomplete (fs.js:153:21)"

Can you help me solving this issue?

the linein action doesn't work with HDMI pr SPDIF inputs. I'm not familiar with how the HDMI input works, since I don't own a beam myself.

There is a workaround (see #109) but I'm not sure how it works with an HDMI device.

If you could send me the /roomname/status output when you have the hdmi linein selected for your beam, then it would tell me the exact avtransporturi needed to use the workaround. (replacing x-sonos-htastream:RINCON_XXXXXXXXXXXX01400:spdif)

Hi jishi,

thanks for your quick reply and this great api.
Here is the status output of /roomname/status/

Okay, looks like it is the same as for the playbar, so the workaround in the issue I mentioned would work.

Ok, just found out that replacing /Roomname/linein with /Roomname/setavtransporturi/x-sonos-htastream:RINCON_347E5C9129B101400:spdif is a workaround. Thanks for your help.
