It looks like mpvDLNA is having an issue getting python to work on your system. Can you check if you have it installed and if you can run python from the terminal?

If you do have a working python install and mpvDLNA still doesn't work then try running mpv with the --msg-level=mpvDLNA=trace argument to get a more detailed error log and post it here so we can figure out what else might be causing the issue.

[chachmu]

For some reason it doesn't look like mpvDLNA started during that command. Could you try one more time with the message level argument and use mpv to actually open a file? Hopefully that should make mpvDLNA try to start up.

It sounds like the finder is launching the application with some sort of different environment than the command line version. I haven't used macOS in a long time so I'm not really sure what you can do to fix this but I guess you might be able to find a way to edit the properties of the mpv application somehow.

As for the issues with Russian characters I can try to look into that although mpvDLNA has had a lot of issues with unicode characters in the past so I can't say for sure if I will be able to get that working.

[chachmu]

I tried to get Russian characters working and unfortunately mpv doesn't properly support receiving unicode characters from commands that it runs so I don't think there is going to be anything I can do to support non-ASCII characters.

MacOS 12.6

Did not check what the default values are, but I managed to fix this by running launchctl config user path /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin in the terminal.

[chachmu]

Good news! Thanks to @hyousatsu UTF-8 encoding works so that should add support for Russian characters as well as any other unicode characters. As for the environment issue it seems like the issua has been fixed so I am going to close this issue, feel free to reopen it if you are still having any of these problems after installing the updated version of mpvDLNA.
