errcode: 5, verbose: 'Timeout', method: 'forEach()'

Hey guys, first of all I'm not sure this is a bug from node-mpv, mpv itslef or just me.

I'm using node-mpv for a blindtest game, on a RPi. So I play a bunch of WAV/MP3 one after another. To sum up I play a file, and when the time is expired I stop the file, display the results and then I go to the next file.

But sometimes, for no reason, this error appears (see below). MPV is still playing the last file in loop, but my app crashes. It could be after 10 songs, or 150 songs.

Here are my logs:

Nevermind, I simply upgraded MPV to the latest version and everything is working well.

Glad the issue resolved itself. Sorry I didn't get back to you in time, I had a look at it but didn't really know where to look for the issue.

No worries, having created this package is already huge, it helped me a lot and saved a lot of time, so thanks to you!
