Screen Shot 2021-09-20 at 11 10 37 am I always see two instances of the shim in my sources list.

client is plex web player on OSX/Chrome

mpv-plex-shim is running via an mpv instance (not the libmpv binding) on Ubuntu/RPi4 over ethernet.

here's my runstate: one python3 invocation of the shim, one instance of mpv running.

Same issue here, Windows 10, doesn't matter which browser.

Neat... Do both of them work? Is the response from the Plex server (Devtools/F12 > Network) giving a duplicate response or are they different in some way?

I know historically the application has had issues tearing down old instances when you quit it, but as shown by the ps listing this issue it not that.

(edited) yes.

can't see substantive differences.
