MPV takes too long to load a video

I have Xubuntu 16.04.4 installed in a MacBook white (2007 model).
Everything works fine.
There is only an annoying issue.
MPV takes forever to load any video, irrespective of the video file size. I am talking about 30 seconds to open each video.
I am forced to use VLC in this machine, but I would rather use MPV.
Does anyone know about a fix for this?

gompv --log-file=mpv.log --no-config /path/to/filenameYou'll then find a log in home folder. Copy to a pastebin like paste.ubuntu.com & post link to it.

How long do the videos take to load in vlc? Does this happen if you try to open a video in vlc first and then open it in mpv?

@ianorlin, videos load instantly in vlc. If I open the video file in vlc and then in mpv it is the same.
