I followed the setup.py method in Readme.md to install it for my Windows but getting this error while running kawaii-player

kanishka-linux commented 3 years ago

for windows, there is binary available, which one can use directly.

otherwise, one has to add mpv-1.dll manually to the system path, where it could be found automatically.

alexpandain commented 3 years ago

but the binary is for Win 10 64bit only, please build for older windows version (or use github actions workflow for automatic build)

how to run from source by the way? I did add the mpv-1.dll folder in path I tried running mpv-1.dll in Command Prompt but its fine. (using mpv-1.dll from mpv.net binary not libmpv)

once you've 32 bit mpv-1.dll, add it in some folder, and add that folder path to system path. I'm not good with windows, but quick google search gave me this result - which I think, you can follow and solve the path issue.

please build for older windows version

I never tested with 32 bit windows build, and not sure if will even work or not. Getting kawaii-player to run on windows itself was quite challenging, that's why providing atleast 64 bit build only. It is somewhat difficult to provide binary for various OS and distros and their variety of combinations, so sorry for that.

Thanks for the suggestion. Will think about it.
