Sample Usage

import sys
from PyQt4 import QtGui
from mplayer.qt4 import QPlayerView

app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)
# Main widget
w = QtGui.QWidget()
w.resize(640, 480)
w.setWindowTitle('QtPlayer')

# Create a player view
v = QPlayerView(w)

# Quit application after file has finished playing
v.eof.connect(app.closeAllWindows)

v.resize(640, 480)
w.show()

# Play the file
v.player.loadfile('/path/to/file.mkv')

# Enter the Qt event loop
sys.exit(app.exec_())
