Answer 6 · 2024-07-21T00:43:56.000Z

mpv should be added to the Path environment variable to use mpv from cmd.
where mpv

Answer 7 · 2024-07-21T15:14:04.000Z

setx PATH "%PATH%;C:\Program Files\MPV"

Run this command and restart the terminal. Then verify using the where mpv, mpv --version command.

# Test folder
$InstallLocation = "C:\Program Files\MPV"

# To add folder to PATH
 $persistedPath = [Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable('Path', [EnvironmentVariableTarget]::Machine) -split ';'
   if ($persistedPath -notcontains $InstallLocation) {
       $persistedPath = $persistedPath + $InstallLocation | where { $_ }
       [Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable('Path', $persistedPath -join ';', [EnvironmentVariableTarget]::Machine)
     }

#To verify if PATH isn't already added
    $envPaths = $env:Path -split ';'
    if ($envPaths -notcontains $InstallLocation) {
        $envPaths = $envPaths + $InstallLocation | where { $_ }
        $env:Path = $envPaths -join ';'
    }

    }

But why 15/16 lines of code? If our work is being done with one line setx PATH "%PATH%;C:\Program Files\MPV" And your cmds sets the system-wide environment (affects all users) which I don't think is right

how to create Shortcut from cmd? and how to add arguments mpv in Shortcut from cmd?

Batch scripts alone do not have built-in capabilities to create Windows shortcuts (.lnk files) directly. They can create symbolic links using mklink, but these are not the same as shortcuts.

how to add arguments mpv in Shortcut from powershell?

Answer 17 · 2024-07-25T09:10:46.000Z

To pass arguments to the target app when creating a shortcut using PowerShell, you can set the Arguments property of the shortcut object. See this example:

# Create a new shortcut object
$sh = (New-Object -ComObject WScript.Shell).CreateShortcut("$env:USERPROFILE\Desktop\MPV.lnk")

# Set the path to the executable
$sh.TargetPath = "$env:PROGRAMFILES\MPV\mpv.exe"

# Optionally, set the working directory (if needed)
$sh.WorkingDirectory = "$env:PROGRAMFILES\MPV"

# Set any arguments you want to pass to the executable
$sh.Arguments = "--fullscreen --no-audio" # Example arguments

# Save the shortcut
$sh.Save()

Replace --fullscreen --no-audio with any arguments.
