I am having a big problem with VLC 2.0.
I'm running several VLC processes in a shell.
Since version 2.0 the shell command kill <PID> does not work anymore. VLC does not quit!
This behavior is on "Snow Leopard" and on "Lion".
The Version for "Leopard" works just fine. (Like earlier versions)
Any chance to fix this?
Can't kill a VLC 2.0 process!

Re: Can't kill a VLC 2.0 process!
You could always try: kill -9 <PID> .
Could you open a ticket for this? It may suggest some threads not finishing.

Providing logs, messages, configuration info (VLC, OS, Hardware) and a clear explanation of the issue always helps the problem solvers help you, even if they don't end up solving the issue. Just think what you would need if you were solving someone else's problem. Additional: Always looking for eager and capable MacOS X developers to join the VLC team - for more information see here.
