When asked to enter the video-player change it to xdg-open which will automatically open mpv-player.

Motivation

I recently found out about ani-cli, but it was not cross-platform because it was written in shell, so I decided to recreate that same thing in Python, hoping to make it cross-platform and possibly also have pretty UI.
