The package is broken after last system update. Trying to actually play anything results in the following error:

polyzen, python-mpv 1.0.6 indeed fixes the issue. thank you for the heads up

polyzen commented on 2024-05-01 17:58 (UTC)

mfcmquintela, should be fixed with python-mpv 1.0.6 in testing.

Package recently broke for me (see https://github.com/iwalton3/plex-mpv-shim/issues/112). Issue appears to be related to a system update, possibly mpv.

If you want to fix the missing tray icon, Set GDK_BACKEND=x11 before launching the script.

Might be worth creating a desktop file for DE integration and making some kind of wrapper script to make sure that's set.

polyzen, it seems the issue is serversided(1) It is easily circumvented with a userscript called MPV Shim Local Connection(2)

polyzen commented on 2023-02-04 17:01 (UTC)

vodka, I haven't seen that issue, but normally if I try to connect just after launching plex-mpv-shim, it won't be able to connect the first time but will connect after.

Is this broken for anyone else? I get no errors at all and everything seems fine, but as soon as I try and select the mpv-shim as a player in Plex, it instantly goes "do you want to continue playback here?", there is 0 information as to what went wrong from Plex nor plex-mpv-shim. I tried on a fresh install of arch, and with all dependencies included with the same issue.
