How to quit playback? #44

Closed demmaone closed 8 years ago

demmaone commented 8 years ago

Hello, I`m testing this version via ssh and I can´t find a way to quit the player. I tried opening a Terminal windows in the Raspberry and type "killall omx-player" and the command kill it but less than a second after it starts again. I just want to quit to change videos and continue testing. Thanks in advance.

You only kill the omxplayer instance that omxplayer-sync spawned and thus it will be respawned if killed. You need to kill both omxplayer-sync and omxplayer, e.g. killall omxplayer-sync omxplayer.

I have the same issue, but when I try that command the process is not found.

$ killall omxplayer-sync omxplayer
omxplayer-sync: no process found

I am also looking for an answer to this. Neither q, nor ctrl+C seems to do the trick. if I do $ killall omxplayer-sync omxplayer i also get omxplayer-sync: no process found any help would be great!
