politby 88 Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I have set up MPC-HC and TMT6 as external players with "Force close player on stop button" enabled. But both players stay active in the foreground after I press "Stop". Should this be working? Thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37022 Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 you should always configure the player to close on stop when possible, which is possible with mpc. our force close won't always work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KPH123 5 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 I had a problem with MPC-HC and TMT closing properly via remote since MB2 (also MB Classic). After watching a movie or tv show, I routinely had to end the TMT or MPC-HC process in task manager (using a mini-keyboard remote) or new shows would not launch via Media Browser even after I closed the applications (ISOs especially). I researched the issue several times to make sure my settings were correct, but for whatever reasons, I could not get either TMT or MPC-HC to close properly on a consistent basis using my harmony remote. Fortunately, MPC-HC closes properly when I use MBT (I am using the internal MPC-HC settings to close it as Luke advised), although I've had issues at times with some of the remote commands not working (prev/back button) after I return to MBT.

bret1958 26 Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 I am having this issue earlier version of mb3 had a configure player option this has been removed.. Now on a new install MPC_HC 64 will not exit with a remote.. this is extreamly flustrating as this has been a great way to use MPC_HC since the old days. Why the change? Will it be fixed or am I missing something. 90 days ago when i installed MPC_HC on a new build the option was their and every thing worked perfect. Now after Upgrading to some heavier hardware I am stuck with a build of MB3 that will not configure MPC-HC 64 to exit on stop. any help would be apriciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37022 Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Nothing has been changed. I think you're referring to media browser classic, a different app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebr 14904 Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 The automatic configuration option was removed because it no longer worked with newer versions of MPC-HC. However, the option to which you are referring was never something set by that capability. It is a command line option when starting the player. Make sure your command line has '/close' on it in the external player setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
