[Solved] mpv / mpv-git errors

Today started getting this error when using mpv-git to play media files

mpv: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL2-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Tried installing mpv, but get this error when attempting to play media files

mpv: error while loading shared libraries: libass.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Re: [Solved] mpv / mpv-git errors

Did you recompile mpv-git?
Is your system up to date?
libass has just been updated https://www.archlinux.org/packages/?name=libass so try an up to date mirror.

Edit: Same thing for sdl2 https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/sdl2/

Re: [Solved] mpv / mpv-git errors

Tried recompiling mpv-git, but got error

Checking for zlib ... 
Error: Unable to find development files for zlib.

so installed mpv, with result as per op.

Re: [Solved] mpv / mpv-git errors

Please make sure you're using the latest versions of libass.

I am. Same error.

I think I just need to be patient.

Re: [Solved] mpv / mpv-git errors

I read it the wrong way: you do have the latest version of libass, but not the latest mpv, mpv 0.2.1-2.

Edit: I use

sudo reflector -p http -l 5 --sort rate --save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

to have an up to date serverlist.

Still, with mpv 0.2.1-2 I too get the libass error.

Re: [Solved] mpv / mpv-git errors

Please open a bug report.

I'll see if I can compile mpv-git.

Indeed, but I still get the libass error.

Re: [Solved] mpv / mpv-git errors

Ah, it's the new ffmpeg. ffmpeg 1:2.0.2-3 should fix it.

Edit: Yup, mpv works again.

Re: [Solved] mpv / mpv-git errors

libass had a minor version update that ended up with an soname bump.  The developer missed it so packages are being rebuilt as we speak.  mpv is done.  Give it a couple of hours to sync.

The sdl issue looks like this bug: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/37484 .   The fix can not be released directly as it created an soname bump and so a rebuild is needed.

So, mpv from the repos should work very soon, and you will be able to recompile mpv-git in a day or two.

Re: [Solved] mpv / mpv-git errors

Thanks to Allan and all the devs for a prompt response.

I just built mpv-git again, with '--enable-sdl2' (i.e. the stock PKGBUILD https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mp/mpv-git/PKGBUILD ) and it works. <scratches head>

Re: [Solved] mpv / mpv-git errors

I tried compiling mpv-git yet another time and now it doesn't work again - the compilation fails.
I think it's safe to assume that Allan knows more than I do, so I'll just shut up :-)

mpv from the repos works, so I'm happy.
I've also posted a comment on the AUR https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mpv-git/

Re: [Solved] mpv / mpv-git errors

The GUI overlay disappeared for me. Anyone else not seeing it with mpv 0.2.1-2?
