Recent change was to allow emms to control long-running mpv process via --input-ipc-server option (for mpv >= 0.17.0), which I guess doesn't work in your configuration for some reason. Can you enable emms-player-mpv-debug, and post "emms-player-mpv" lines from *Messages* buffer? It can be done by adding this to ~/.emacs: (setq emms-player-mpv-debug t) And then starting playback of anything via emms. Along with "ipc-error: connection-error" message, there might be something else that'd give more info about the problem. All messages from new mpv backend are prefixed by emms-player-mpv there. Another thing that'd be useful is full output of "mpv -v --version" command, mostly for build-time configuration options. Which OS/distro it's happening on, btw? Finally, likely workarounds: - If you have heavily-customized mpv configuration, which causes the problem, --no-config or using alternative lighter config file can do the trick. - Fall back to old way of doing things by setting emms-player-mpv-ipc-method to 'file. Would be nice if you can provide more info so that issue can be fixed without requiring either of these though.
