[BUG] Can't run it with MPV, causes the error: No option 'input-ipc-server' in section: 'root'

[xcloudx01]

I'm trying to install it following the guide for MPV, but after following the steps an error occurs and scrobbling does not work. I've done "trakt init" to set it up with MPV, and "trakt test" shows a successful token. But run "trakts test mpv" and the following error occurs:

Testing connection with mpv.
Please ensure that mpv is playing some media.
Config value autoload failed for mpv.

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Hint: Try re-running trakts test with '-vvv' to enable more debug logging.

I'm on Win11. Is there any solution? Thanks

Looks like your mpv config is a bit weird. Could you please paste it here? Please make sure that you have set the input-ipc-server field in your mpv config as described in the setup.

Thank you! I had indeed forgotten to add the input-ipc-server field to my mpv.conf. It is working as expected now <3. Thanks again

The toast message is giving a minor error in the log whenever it pops up but it's no biggie, figured I'd paste it here for your reference if you wanted to look into it sometime:
