Yes, there is some confusion: they are the same thing, C-c C-v is
basically a shortcut for C-c C-c View RET RET.

I'm honestly lost.  Could you please explain what's the workflow you'd
like to use?  I thought it's something like this:

1) edit the source in AUCTeX

2) compile it with C-c C-c

3) open the output document in Okular with C-c C-v

4) switch back to Emacs with the window manager (usually ALT + TAB, I guess)

5) edit again

6 compile again with C-c C-c

7) switch to Okular with the window manager.  The document will auto-reload

8) reiterate from point 4

If this is your workflow, forward search can't be used --- C-c C-v is
run only once at point 3 --- unless you close Okular all the time.
Perhaps I'm wrong, so please explain it more clearly.

Bye,
Mosè
