Hi,<div><br></div><div><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><div>This patch fixes a potential memory leak when a media is stopped and played again or a new media is selected and play.</div><div>
(I don't trust dalvik's GC)</div></div><div><br></div><div>As of current state, when I play a media file, then quit and then reopen VLC, it would hang, sometimes I see no video.</div><div>The problem I think is: even when finish() is called to quit, vlc.android stays as a process, so because it's not cleaning up, restarting it causes issues.</div>
<div><br></div><div>If LibVlc/VLC were a service, it would run in background, and I could still hear music when I goto for ex. on home screen, as opposed to it being an activity which pauses when I switch to home screen. So I'm proposing, LibVlc to run as a Service and VLC as an Activity/basically the gui, comment?</div>
