   I am not at all familiar with mpv, but my guess is that any .conf file   
   living below a directory called doc is not actually used as a   
   configuration file but only as an example in documentation.   
      
   Somewhere it is probably documented where to place that .conf file, maybe   
   in the man-page of mpv, maybe in a comment in the .conf file, maybe in   
   some README in the same directory as the .conf file. My guess is that a   
   system wide configuration file should go to a place like /usr/local/etc   
   and user custom configuration files should go to $HOME.   
      
   One way to find out where mpv looks for its configuration file might be   
   to do:   
      
   strace mpv 2>&1 | grep mpv.conf   
      
   or with tcsh:   
      
   strace mpv |& grep mpv.conf   
      
   Another way to find out where it looks for its configuration file might   
   be to do:   
      
   strings /usr/local/bin/mpv | grep mpv.conf   
      
   regards Henrik
