One more simple KODI control solution:

Code:

require('socket.http')
socket.http.TIMEOUT = 5

-- play ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
data1 = socket.http.request('http://192.168.1.79:8080/jsonrpc?request={ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Input.ExecuteAction", "params": { "action": "play" }, "id": 1 }')

-- pause --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
data1 = socket.http.request('http://192.168.1.79:8080/jsonrpc?request={ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Input.ExecuteAction", "params": { "action": "pause" }, "id": 1 }, "id": 1 }')

-- down ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
data1 = socket.http.request('http://192.168.1.79:8080/jsonrpc?request={"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Input.Down", "id": 1}')

-- up -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
data1 = socket.http.request('http://192.168.1.79:8080/jsonrpc?request={"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Input.Up", "id": 1}')

-- right --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
data1 = socket.http.request('http://192.168.1.79:8080/jsonrpc?request={"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Input.Right", "id": 1}')

-- left ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
data1 = socket.http.request('http://192.168.1.79:8080/jsonrpc?request={"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Input.Left", "id": 1}')

-- home ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
data1 = socket.http.request('http://192.168.1.79:8080/jsonrpc?request={"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Input.Home", "id": 1}')

-- select -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
data1 = socket.http.request('http://192.168.1.79:8080/jsonrpc?request={"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Input.Select", "id": 1}')

With this solution you have no incoming data, so you can't turn off your lights when a movie starts for example.
