python3-pymediainfo not found (but it's there)
I blundered by upgrading our OpenLP workstation to openSUSE Leap 15.4 (from 15.3) without first verifying that OpenLP had a working update available in 15.4. It did not. I had to download the source for 2.9.5 and run it from a terminal. After numerous complaints about missing python3 packages and installing said packages, OpenLP 2.9.5 will run, though it still complains that python3-pymediainfo is missing. I have verified it is installed. The problem is OpenLP will not play media files. Attempting to do so produces this error:

Any ideas how to fix this?
Comments
This may be a mis-named package. Check if "python3-mediainfo" is installed, as well as the "mediainfo" package.
On openSUSE the only python package with “mediainfo” in the name is python3-pymedianfo. It and mediainfo are installed. openSUSE's package manager describes python3-pymediainfo as “Python wrapper for the mediainfo library”.
Hrm. What's the version of pymediainfo?
The full openSUSE version number is 5.1.0-bp154.1.24, built in May.
I had to get this box back into production so I reinstalled openSUSE Leap 15.3 and OpenLP 2.4.6.
Did we ever get a solution for this? I had the same problem with Leap 15.4. I had 2.9.4 working, but foolishly tried to upgrade to 3.01 / 3.02 to no avail and now can't go back.
I did not. I reverted back to openSUSE Leap 15.3 and will leave it there until I can confirm that it works under 15.4. This is a single-function box so I'm okay with older software—provided it works.
