Hmm ... when I scroll the mouse on my system it increases/decreases the 
volume.  :-/

I use the < > arrows to move back/forward 5 seconds, or up/down arrows to move 
1 minute, or Shift+PageUp/Down to jump 10 minutes.

Alternatively, I click on the progress bar in the GUI.

There's another more manual way, for ad hoc play lists - open Dolphin, select 
all the files you want to play and drag 'n drop them together in an mpv 
window.  They will be played sequentially.  However, if you try to add another 
file/list by dragging it into the mpv window, it will overwrite the previous 
selection.
