run TVDemon on MSYS2

[candrapersada]

why is there no clear information on how to run TVDemon on MSYS2 in the README?

[DYefremov]

Will be available later. Perhaps, it will added the ability to build as a standalone package also.

[DYefremov]

Added quick guide.

[DYefremov]

Yes, I forgot one step. You need to install IMDbPY. In the mingw64 shell: pip3 install imdbpy

The syntax of the command is incorrect.

"Old" problem -> UTF-8 encoding on Windows.:) What is your system locale? Apparently you have cp1252 . What output for locale command in the mingw64 shell? At me looks so:

$ locale
LANG=
LC_CTYPE="ru_RU.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="C.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="C.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="C.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="C.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="C.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

OK. Interesting... Needs to experiment on free time. Does this build work at you?

[candrapersada]

Does this build work at you?

no

[DYefremov]

Hm, at me works.

OK. I'll experiment as possible.

[DYefremov]

For an experiment, try local *m3u files also, e.g from here.

[DYefremov]

Added forced playlist reading in UTF-8. I hope it helps.

OSError: Cannot find mpv-1.dll or mpv-2.dll in your system %PATH%. One way to deal with this is to ship the dll with your script and put the directory your script is in into %PATH% before "import mpv": os.environ["PATH"] = os.path.dirname(__file__) + os.pathsep + os.environ["PATH"] If mpv-1.dll is located elsewhere, you can add that path to os.environ["PATH"].

[DYefremov]

Changed the name for library search. Try again.

[candrapersada]

yes working
