Hummm, Don't get me wrong I like the command line when I work on my GUI-less server, but a video player to run through the command line on a daily drive desktop with GUI and everything?

This seems a bit overkill and useless no? I mean when I'm on my desktop I just want to click on my media file and launch it right away.

Maybe I'm not the target audience and it's focus is more entitled to people working in the video industry and needs more granular tweaking with specific media files? Scripts?

Or Am I missing something here?

I'm not running it from the command line, I open videos with it from my file manager, or through the Jellyfin plugin.

Yes, that's what I do. Of course, your desktop environment has to know that you have this MPV and it can open such and such files, but it can work like that.
