Yes I understood that part, but Emacs can start mpv, no problems. I can
run it either from Dired or from minibuffer (via shell). I am not sure
what is difference. Does Emms go via shell, or uses process control
built into Emacs? Must be path right?

I understand that too :). Didn't thought it was, but I don't understand
what changed. I did rebuild Emacs; maybe something else in my config.

I am listening to mpv too as I write this (but via dired :-)).
