Issue Report

Description

I have rpi3 and appIication in python2. I can play and controll video with first use of my application, but after loading new file or quiting omxplayer ( by quit() function) in code, new wideo cant be played. I can see only black blinking screen.

I was digging around this problem for days, but i cant solve this - I think this is some problem with dbus. HELP !:)

Just load next file in code

reference file is simple, the demo one from smoke_tests

I have noticed that problem is with 1080p resolution. With 720p i can play, quit, load several times. With 1080p i cannot quit and load new video...

Try to increase your gpu_mem in /boot/config.txt.
