SMPlayer on Linux refuses to recognize flatpak mpv bin file

I executed the following command to get the location of mpv in flatpak:
flatpak info --show-location io.mpv.Mpv

Result is: 

/var/lib/flatpak/app/io.mpv.Mpv/x86_64/stable/a3f2f57eee44cc76c980f5ca7b5aef1754e5dc4a0e72a3968200e67848f84d01

I do a search for mpv and find:
./files/bin/mpv-bin

Attempting to add that path to SMPlayer > Options > Preferences > General > Multimedia Engine > Other and path of 

/var/lib/flatpak/app/io.mpv.Mpv/x86_64/stable/a3f2f57eee44cc76c980f5ca7b5aef1754e5dc4a0e72a3968200e67848f84d01/files/bin/mpv-bin

Results in error
Exit code 127

Was wondering if anyone else experienced with this with Flatpak MPV?
