there are two ways to use cvplayer, either through

starting interactive (direct) playback of a video from the command-line:
cvplay filaname

the default keymaps for controlling the video playback are -

scripts (getting a VideoPlayer instance and doing whatever you want to)

scripted access
cvplayer provides the VideoPlayer class which is the main wrapper around ffpyplayer's MediaPlayer.
Initializing a VideoPlayer instance will start playing the video according to the options specified. The Playback can be controlled from within the script as well as using keymaps.
the VideoPlayer class initiates playback and provide methods to control/access the state of the player.
