The easiest way, with mpv, is to use the per-file options, just over
300 lines through the man page. For example, and using foo.mkv to
stand for the file above:

$ mpv --fs --\{ --volume=100 foo.mkv --\} --\{ --volume=50 foo.mkv --\} --\{ --volume=100 foo.mkv --\}

It might seem futile to triplicate one file for the playlist, but it
demonstrates that the volume changes are genuine.

Cheers,
David.
