I'm going to test out using the electron native way of spawning a child_process
instead of utilizing node's native spawn
function. Could be some strange windows permission discrepancy between the two. I think utilityProcess
is a 1:1 with node's spawn API so it should work.
administrator isnt needed for this tho?

This ended up being that I happened to select multiple torrents that's streams didn't complete and on the next launch as administrator it circumstantially finished the download. Disregard this issue, I'll close it. Whoops! lmao
Preflight checklist
What app version are you using?
v5.1.4
What operating system version are you using?
Windows
Expected Behavior
I expect the executable to be invoked without the need to run as administrator, as long as I have proper permissions to launch it.
If this is intended behavior, do you think we could add a new note to the setting card in section in https://github.com/ThaUnknown/miru/blob/8902833ee3241db4b50c5be94d994d6cd01bb9fc/common/views/Settings/PlayerSettings.svelte#L152-L157 Like
Requires running as administrator on Windows
If this is a bug, can you assign this to me? I'd like to fix it myself.
Actual Behavior
Process is not invoked, there are no error messages or indications telling you that as well. Default player is black, content is loading in, but player (in this case mpv) is not launched.
Screenshots
No screenshot needed for this.
