Asked By CuriousPenguin42 On

I'm trying to install the latest version of MPV player on my Linux Mint 22.1 by following the Ubuntu installation guide. However, when I enter the terminal command 'deb http://apt.fruit.je/Ubuntu Xia mpv', I keep getting an error saying 'command 'deb' not found.' I'm not even sure if I'm using the terminal correctly since I'm fairly new to this OS.

You're not supposed to run 'deb' as a command in the terminal. Instead, you need to create a sources list file. You can do this by opening a terminal and entering: 'echo "deb http://apt.fruit.je/Ubuntu Xia mpv" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/fruit.list'. After that, make sure to update your package list with 'sudo apt update'. This should help you get MPV installed!

Could you break that down a bit more? I'm really new to this and could use a step-by-step! Thanks!
