Description

I tried to see what would happen when playing a song with Media Player and then restarting the Media Server during the song. The result is that after the Media Server is restarted that Media Player refuses to resume or shut-down. VLC however will resume if you press the play button. I did a quick search but didn't find any other tickets that matched. Tested on r24493

Yes, this is a known problem with MediaKit applications. I have once written an article about it. Don't know when I will have the time, but I can try and look into this.

Not sure if this is related or not, but while playing a song .wav file on media player I hit f12 to drop to kdl to see something else and when i left kdl mediaplayer was frozen. I did a ctrl-alt-del and killed off media player and then reopened it and it still wouldn't play. So closed it again and restarted media server and then media player worked fine again. Not reporting this as a bug as I'm not sure that media server should/would still work after dropping into and out of kdl, just thought it might be related this this bug report.
