Here's the full solution I am using on Mojave:

Plist: ~/Library/LaunchAgents/play.with.mpv.plist

    Disabled
    
    EnvironmentVariables
    
        PATH
        /Users/e/Library/Python/3.7/bin:/usr/local/bin
    
    KeepAlive
    
    Label
    play.with.mpv
    ProgramArguments
    
        /usr/local/bin/python3
        /Users/e/Library/Python/3.7/bin/play-with-mpv
    
    RunAtLoad
    
    StandardErrorPath
    /tmp/play.with.mpv.stderr
    StandardOutPath
    /tmp/play.with.mpv.stdout

Mind the PATH to python3 - find it with which python3 and the play-with-mpv python script!

Load plist:

launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/play.with.mpv.plist

If your video is dropping frames as hell, create mpv config in ~/.config/mpv/mpv.conf and put there this:

video-sync=display-resample

if that do doesn't help, try this instead

opengl-early-flush=no
