Key Operations
Keystrokes and mouse clicks no longer abort demos. If you have binds that you wish to use, press ESC once. However there are a standard set of keys for most common demo functions:

TAB | Brings up the scoreboard. |
PGUP / PGDN | Multiplies/divides playback speed by 2 (min=0.125, max=32). |

Note that cg_followpowerup
and team overlay work during MVD playback.
Demo Browser
CPMA supports directory trees of demos. Hitting ESC in a demo menu tree pops you up one level rather than straight back to the main menu.
"Back" still jumps all the way out just in case you like it. Once you find the demo you desire, you can hit ENTER to launch it or select Play.
