I can't open videos in thorium and chrome browsers using ff2mpv. I tried to use rust, ruby implementation but they also don't work but they work in firefox. So i think the problem is in the script.

Reproduction steps

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Right click on the video and click “Open in MPV” in torium and chrome.
  2. Does not play video in mpv

Expected behavior

Ability to play video in chromium browsers

Thanks for the report, and sorry for the delay.

Just to confirm: you've observed this plugin work in Firefox and Brave, but not in Chrome, right?

I have a similar problem. The extension works in Firefox, but does not work in Brave Browser.

I had issues the other day with Brave in a mac pc. Turns out Brave does read the native messaging host of google chrome there as it does in windows. @justafreaky if you are on mac, try installing for chrome and see if that resolves your issue.
