Issues with MPV Shaders plex htpc?

Server Version#: Newest
Player Version#: Newest

As I understand plex uses a customized version of MPV for the player for Plex HTPC. My problem is that I am trying to add shaders via the input.conf file to Plex but they are not applying. I have it set to apply a certain shader and display a certain message if a certain button is pressed. The messages get displayed but the shaders are not applied.

My questions are the following:

  1. How do I use the MPV diagnostics? I remapped the “plex show info” button to O and it works. But the i button does nothing, whereas in MPV it displays the stats perfectly well

  2. Why are shaders not applying in plex? Is there something more that needs to be done other than just altering input.cof and adding the shader to the shaders forlder?

The input.conf.md file describes exactly how to do this.

Shaders are used in the app. You should examine the app logs because it’s likely you have a syntax error in MPV and it is logged there.
