Did you add them as separate strings like this? subprocess.run(["mpv", "--vo=tct", "--quiet", DirectLink]) Otherwise your terminal may be missing true-color

Otherwise your terminal may be missing true-color terminal mode or the mpv in your distro doesn't have that output plugin. (You can check with "mpv --vo=help")
- kkirsche 5y agoIf, like me, you forget where to split the command and arguments, shlex.split in the standard library can split the raw string for you.
- Doxin 5y agoRule of thumb is every space, except ones you'd normally put between quotes. so e.g. foo quix-quiz "bar baz" turns into ["foo", "quix-quiz", "bar baz"] Though do note that you don't get an extra set of quotes on "bar baz" which is slightly confusing, but makes sense once you think about it a bit.
