I don't know anything about scripts and things like this so I am having trouble installation like I don't any steps of installation please help.
Here's a quick way to install in windows in case install_windows.bat
not working:
step 1: Extract the .zip and copy scripts
and scripts-opts
folders and mpv-discord.exe
to mpv directory.
step 2: Edit scripts-opts\discord.conf
and write path to mpv-discord.exe
i.e. <your mpv directory>\mpv-discord.exe
next to binary_path=
.
For example: binary_path=C:\Program Files\mpv\mpv-discord.exe
by directory you means this folder right ?
and i have to paste scripts and scripts-opts folders here or the contents of these folders in the folder already present here named scripts and scripts-opts.
also in discord.conf file i have to right the path like this ?
key=D active=yes client_id=737663962677510245 binary_path=C:\Program Files\mpv use_static_socket_path=yes autohide_threshold=0
well i don't know how but now whenever i open mpv it shows discord rich presence started in top left corner but it doesn't update my discord status
paste scripts and scripts-opts (or its contents if folder already present) there and in discord.conf you need to specify full path to mpv-discord.exe like C:\Program Files\mpv\mpv-discord.exe
well i don't know how but now whenever i open mpv it shows discord rich presence started in top left corner but it doesn't update my discord status
that's because you haven't specified the path to mpv-discord.exe
correctly
Well I did I pasted it at C:\Program Files\mpv\mpv where the scripts and scrit-opts folder is and I specified this path in the discord.config file
your mpv folder should look like this
and your discord.conf should look like this
Example directory structure:
C:\Program Files\mpv
├── d3dcompiler_43.dll
├── doc
│ └── (...)
├── installer
│ └── (...)
├── mpv
│ └── (...)
├── mpv-discord.exe 👈🏻
├── mpv-install.bat
├── mpv-uninstall.bat
├── mpv.com
├── mpv.exe
├── script-opts
│ └── discord.conf 👈🏻
├── scripts
│ └── discord.lua 👈🏻
└── updater.bat
(Files pointed by a finger belong to mpv-discord. Others belong to mpv itself.)
If the folders `scripts` and `script-opts` do not exist yet, create them.
In the above setup, the binary_path
would be C:\Program Files\mpv\mpv-discord.exe
.
correct?
now when i open install_windows.bat it asks for a path so i have paste this C:\Program Files\mpv\mpv-discord.exe or just enter in both cases it shows some kind of text then closes and it too fast to be able to read
You don't need to run install_windows.bat
now, you are done already. Just open discord and play something on mpv and see if it's working.
Thank you it's working now
