To fix the recent errors, you have to cleanbuild the python dependencies for the newest version of python. So, if you're using yay for example, yay -S --answerclean All python-mpv-jsonipc python-jellyfin-apiclient python-setuptools as well as any optional python libraries you're using.

Hi I am also getting an error, it's slightly different than l4kr's error:

    sys.exit(load_entry_point('jellyfin-mpv-shim==2.0.1', 'console_scripts', 'jellyfin-mpv-shim')())

Hi, I'm getting these lines when running jellyfin-mpv-shim:

@sseneca Looks like an issue with the python-pydantic dependency. I checked the change history on that package, and it seems that the maintainers picked up on that a few hours after your post, so it should be fixed now.

I suddenly started getting this error today:

Installing python-typing_extensions fixed this for me, so if others are having it this issue it should be added to depends

Thanks @triatk. The issue appears to be python-pystray missing gobject as a dependency - I've forwarded the report to that package's maintainer, hopefully that should fix the dependency issue.

The blue screen issue is tracked upstream in this issue. It appears to be caused by graphics backend problems or something being broken in libmpv1 on KDE. Possible fixes include setting mpv_ext to true in Jellyfin MPV Shim's config file, or switching graphics renderer from OpenGL to Vulkan. You could check the linked issue and see if any of the solutions work for you.

@kruzah without gobject, the systray wont show under KDE, the video playback is normal. after install it, the systray is working but the video playback is bluescreen.
