MPRIS seems broken in KDE 5.16.5
Checklist:
I have checked that there are no issues with similar or the same content (I think similar in #3583 , but that issue in Gnome and not discussed for MPRIS specification.)
YOU SHOULD CHECK CLOSED ISSUES ASWELL
I have checked the FAQ (https://github.com/MarshallOfSound/Google-Play-Music-Desktop-Player-UNOFFICIAL-/wiki/FAQ) and the answer I am looking for is not there
I have double checked and can reproduce the issue
OS:
Arch Linux (last updated in about 3:00 UTC)
GPMDP Version:
both:
- 4.6.1 from AUR
- 5332c05
Issue Descriptions:
After updating to KDE5.16.5, the media control applet no longer detects GPMDP. According to KDE changelog, that I think requests more strict MPRIS specification.
Players not compliant to MPRIS specification will no longer work with Media Controller applet. Commit. Phabricator Code review D22596
Steps to Reproduce:
- Play any music.
- Media Controller applet has not reaction.
- Sometimes not working media control keys without MPRIS.
