    try:
        m = mpv.Context()
    except mpv.MPVError:
        print('failed creating context')
        return 1

    m.set_option('input-default-bindings')
    m.set_option('osc')
    m.set_option('input-vo-keyboard')

        event = m.wait_event(.01)
        if event.id == mpv.Events.none:
            continue
        print(event.name)
        if event.id in [mpv.Events.end_file, mpv.Events.shutdown]:
            break

if __name__ == '__main__':
    try:
        exit(main(sys.argv[1:]) or 0)
