Topic: Plex Media Player not working

The PMP version I currently have installed is 1.3.4, with all the latest components for SVP 4 installed. The mpv-1.dll was replaced with the one in the SVP 4/mpv64 folder, mpv.conf and plexmediaplayer.conf were modified. Here's an excerpt from the Events Log:

00:49:05.521 (I): VideoPlayer: mpv connected, waiting for the video info...

Decided to update today, but prior to this, I had PMP 1.1 with an older version of mpv-1.dll, and it was working before.

Anything else I should be doing? Thanks in advance.

Re: Plex Media Player not working

this error is usually about PYTHONPATH environment variable which should point to the same SVP 4/mpv64 folder

Re: Plex Media Player not working

Both PATH and PYTHONPATH were set to SVP 4/mpv64 previosly, re-checked the environment variables, and nothing was changed after updating to PMP 1.3.

Kept on testing, and everything else is working properly, such as MPC-HD, mpv, etc. It's just PMP that's throwing that VS error.

Re: Plex Media Player not working

Just updated to the latest PMP - nothing changed, all works the same way.

There's always an ultimate solution for all this PATH issues - copy ALL files from SVP 4/mpv64 into Program Files/Plex/Plex Media Player folder

Re: Plex Media Player not working

Loved that ultimate solution, it worked, haha, thanks a bunch!

So turns out it was definitely something wrong with PYTHONPATH, but it's weird, it's set, so there's no reason why it shouldn't work. Oh well, it is was it is.

Thanks again!
