This causes error:
2018-07-27 09:13:25 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.media_player.kodi] Run API method media_player.kodi.Player.Open({‘data’: OrderedDict([(‘item’, None), (‘data’, ‘file:special://profile/playlists/video/cam1.m3u’)]), ‘entity’: ‘media_player.kodi’}) error: {‘code’: -32602, ‘data’: {‘method’: ‘Player.Open’, ‘message’: ‘Too many parameters’}, ‘message’: ‘Invalid params.’}

Tested this on the commandline and worked.

curl -s --header "Content-Type: application/json" --data-binary '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":"1","method":"Player.Open","params":{"item":{"file":"special://profile/playlists/video/cam1.m3u"} }}, "id": 1}' http://192.168.1.50:8080/jsonrpc

I did not test her (oh hi mark), but shell_command should work with extra quotes arround the curl command (EDIT: and escaping the quotes…)

shell_command:
  cam1_on_kodi: "curl -s --header \"Content-Type: application/json\" --data-binary '{\"jsonrpc\":\"2.0\",\"id\":\"1\",\"method\":\"Player.Open\",\"params\":{\"item\":{\"file\":\"special://profile/playlists/video/cam1.m3u\"} }}, \"id\": 1}' http://192.168.1.50:8080/jsonrpc"

Sorry what extra quotes you mean?

Now it shows error:

Forgot to escape the quotes…

shell_command:
  cam1_on_kodi: "curl -s --header \"Content-Type: application/json\" --data-binary '{\"jsonrpc\":\"2.0\",\"id\":\"1\",\"method\":\"Player.Open\",\"params\":{\"item\":{\"file\":\"special://profile/playlists/video/cam1.m3u\"} }}, \"id\": 1}' http://192.168.1.50:8080/jsonrpc"
