Description Sven Klomp 2009-07-25 06:35:36 UTC
Version:           2.0 (using KDE 4.2.4)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Unlisted Binary Package

It should be configurable that the player exits after finishing a movie. It is very annoying to click every time Exit while I browse a lot of small clips.

Maybe a way to make Dragon Player a singleton, but a 'close-on-finished' option would be really confusing to people who did it on accident.

What?  I really hope this is not the reason there is no way to have Dragonplayer exit at the end of the video. 

I want any video *player* I use to end when the video it done when, most especially if I start it by clicking on a video file.  That's the purpose of a "player" after all, it's not a file manager.  To say a feature as basic as ending at the end of a video won't be implemented because "someone may be confused" by it is just idiotic.

It seems kmplayer has adopted this idiocy as well, and VLC is too bloated for a simple video player.
