Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
If I understood correctly, it's required to add mpv to PATH in Windows. I followed details here https://thewiki.moe/tutorials/mpv/

Describe the solution you'd like
Add such info as a mandatory step to wiki page regarding installation on Windows

Describe alternatives you've considered
Tried running mpv-register.bat included with mpv first-party packages but didn't have desired effect

If I understood correctly, it's required to add mpv to PATH in Windows. I followed details here https://thewiki.moe/tutorials/mpv/

Can you clarify? This appears to be a tutorial for mpv, not ff2mpv. This repo is only for the latter; if you're having problems with mpv more generally you should communicate those directly to the mpv upstream.

(There is no mpv-register.bat file in this repo.)

For additional reference, there are community-maintained installation steps for ff2mpv with Windows here: https://github.com/woodruffw/ff2mpv/wiki/Installation-on-Windows

What I meant was, there's a step in the installation process:

You must have the listed dependencies above on your system. You can verify them by entering [...] mpv --version

However when you follow that, by default the powershell window will say it's not recognized

So in order to see the version you have to follow the steps by adding mpv to PATH

After that, the output looks proper in PowerShell

At first I thought it was required to get ff2mpv to work at all, but maybe I was wrong.

I probably overlooked the simplicity of the instructions when I last edited them. As you mention, you get an error when the executable cannot be found and a common solution is to add said executable to the path although it is true I didn't explicitly mentioned it.

It is not totally mandatory to run mpv --version successfully. That's more of a test to see if your computer can find it after installation which may vary depending of what you used to install the program. Some installations like scoop's one adds mpv to the path.

I suggest, if you can, please try to improve the documentation in the wiki. You may not be the only one who could be confused with that part.
