Description (last modified by baremetal)

Haiku Nightly hrev53962 x86_64:

Restarting the Media Services while MediaPlayer is playing a video will cause media player to become a "zombie" program. The user is able to close the frozen media player window but the MediaPlayer process will remain active. Docker will show MediaPlayer in its tray. The user can not start a new media player instance until the zombie process is killed.

How to reproduce:

1) play a video with MediaPlayer

2) restart the Media Services while MediaPlayer is playing the video

3) Close the frozen MediaPlayer window

4) MediaPlayer will remain active as a zombie / dead process

5) use a terminal to kill the process
