Yes, as mpv's manpage points out:

    "Normally, mpv will try to keep all settings when playing the next
     file on the playlist, even if they were changed by the user
     during playback. (This behavior is the opposite of MPlayer's,
     which tries to reset all settings when starting next file.)"

I see no option for overriding it in mplayer. There's a noticeable
hiatus between its loops anyway, which limits its usefulness.

Cheers,
David.
