xine hangs rather that exits

G'day all,

On to my next problem...

When watching an ISO and I want to exit I hit the exit button on my
remote.
The picture freezes and nothing else happens, at this point I need to
killall xine to get some signs of life again.

Hitting Q on the keyboard exits properly.

Getting to the end of the film works properly.
ESC on the keyboard takes me to the start of the film (not sure if that
is correct).

I ran ircat xine while watching something and pressed the Back key, it
spat out 'Quit' but xine hung and I did a killall to get rid of it.
So as far as I can tell everything is correct, just xine/lirc are not
doing what they are supposed to?

Or has something changed?

Any suggestions?

Try using MythTV to play the ISOs.

I also use myth to play most ISOs, but some won't work right with forced
subtitles so I also use xine. Found this lirc method somewhere to kill
xine. Make sure you have irexec started and added to rc so it starts on
boot.

begin
remote = mce
button = KEY_EXIT
prog = irexec
config = killall -9 xine;
end

Like others, as of MythTV 0.24 I've switched to using the internal
player rather than xine for DVDs, but in answer to the question:

This is a bug in xine-ui that occurs only when lirc is in use which I
reported. As far as I know It's not been fixed:

https://bugs.xine-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=362

It does exactly as you describe, and locks up on exit. If you're bold
enough to compile it from source, the patch on that bug does in fact
work.
