Open Powershell as admin and:

Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Force
mpv-remote

And follow instructions.

Did that, now I entered this npm update -g mpv-remote mpv-remote # Follow instructions and I am stuck on this for an hour:

What's your node and NPM version?
You can check it by running node -v and npm -v
Maybe try 1.0.4, (it seems 1.0.5 has issues on some Windows machines)
You can install 1.0.4 by using this command (as admin on Windows):
First clear NPM cache npm cache clear --force
And:

npm install -g mpv-remote@1.0.4

And of course run mpv-remote and follow instructions.
If using 1.0.4 be sure you install 1.0.4 version of the Android app too! You can get it here

I'll fix these issues for next release. Something definetly went wrong with 1.0.5.

I did some reserarch yesterday night, it seems something went wrong with NPM itself, not with the package. I had the same results as yours both on Linux and Windows. Today it installed flawlessly after 5-6 seconds. Try to upgrade NPM to 8.5.0: npm install -g npm@8.5.0

You still stuck on NPM package installation?
What's your node and npm version?

husudosu commented

Any updates? Did you try newer versions of mpv-remote-node?
