Using --loop-playlist with --\{ --\}

[HotLoverGirl69]

Important Information

Provide following Information:

• mpv version 0.34.1
• macOS Version 12.4
• Source of the mpv binary or bundle https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/tree/v0.34.1

Reproduction steps

Select three .mkv files or any other supported media type and run the following:

mpv file_1.mkv --\{ file_2.mkv file_3.mkv --loop-playlist --\}

Expected behavior

file_1.mkv should play once followed by file_2.mkv and file_3.mkv.

After that file_2.mkv and file_3.mkv should loop but file_1.mkv not.

Actual behavior

All three files loop.

Not sure if a bug or a feature. But I expected the --\{ --\} to limit the scope from --loop-playlist to file_2.mkv and file_3.mkv .

I have a similar issue (#9522) that --merge-files doesn't work in the --{ --} scope

I can reproduce this in git master on Linux.
