Dev channel update to 82.0.446.0 is live
lunarsound did you install Edge after installing MPV or before? Have you tried re-installing either to see if it helps?
josh_bodner yup, tried pretty much everything I could think of. Both reinstalling and switching install order on my main OS as well as Windows Sandbox - nothing changes, media download with Edge stops working for files set to open with mpv. Changing default app for the media file type from mpv to anything else instantly fixes download issues for that particular type.
lunarsound I tried it out in a Sandbox and saw the exact same behavior in Edge that you describe, and I couldn't change any settings in Edge to get it to work properly, so I'll ask our downloads team about it. It looks like it's trying to trigger a codepath for some of the Microsoft-specific download functionality like DirectInvoke that we added to Edge when it shouldn't be, but regardless, thanks for finding this!
