MPV external help

[proboscis7]

Can't get external MPV to work. This is my current configuration.

"mpv_ext": true,
"mpv_ext_ipc": null,
"mpv_ext_no_ovr": true,
"mpv_ext_path": "D:\Downloads\mpv\mpv\mpvnet.exe",
"mpv_ext_start": true,

On launch of MPV Shim, the correct MPV launches, but when I cast to MPV Shim in Jellyfin, it does not play the video in the MPV that launched when I launched the Shim.

try using \\ for the path like this

    "mpv_ext": true,
    "mpv_ext_ipc": null,
    "mpv_ext_no_ovr": false,
    "mpv_ext_path": "D:\\Software\\mpv-animejanai\\mpvnet.exe",
    "mpv_ext_start": true,

if that doesn't work, maybe something is in the console
