I use PowerDVD as an "external" player under Kodi and integrate the player there via the file playercorefactory.xml. That worked great with version 15 of PowerDVD.
This still works since the update to PowerDVD version 17, but PowerDVD will not stop after playing a movie and will stay on top of the screen with the default interface.
This is probably because the parameters for the call have been changed.
So far, the call was made from Kodi u. a. with the parameters "/ fullscreen" and "/ close" and just the "/ close" parameter does not work anymore.
Is there any other parameter or option to automatically quit the program after a movie in version 17?
