           Summary: Dragonplayer CPU use rises to 100% after closing the
                    application or pausing playback
           Product: dragonplayer
           Version: 2.0.x
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: stray_child at gmx.net


Version:           2.0.x (using KDE 4.6.0) 
OS:                Linux

When pausing playback for any Video-File or a DVD the CPU usage (as displayed
by htop) rises to 100%, causing the fan noise in my Laptop to go up as well.
The same happens when, for any reason, I close dragonplayer.
It does not happen when I close the player without having played a video-file.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Play Video either by starting dragonplayer and then selecting video via the
open file-dialogue or by opening the application by selecting the file. Let the
video play for a short while (a few second suffice) and the pause the playback
or quit the application.

Actual Results:  
The CPU usage by the process named "dragon" rises to 100% either way.

Expected Results:  
The process should be killed after exiting. In case of pausing playback the
application should not hog 100% of the CPU.

CPU: Intel Core Duo 1.73 GHz (32-bit)
RAM: Kingston 2GB DIMM DDR2 Synchronous 533 MHz
System: Kubuntu 10.10 32-bit with KDE SC 4.6 installed from backports
repository.

No special Widget- or Window-Style.
Plasmoids in use:
* "Comic" (14 strips),
* "Fortunoid", changing every 1 hour,
* "Desktop Notes" with a few lines of often used html-code for copy-paste
* "Hard Disk Status" with root- and home-partition shown.
* "Digital Clock" shows seconds and three time zones (including local)
* a second Panel on top of the screen which auto-hides

Two instances of gwenview, and one of each Firefox, Thunderbird, Dolphin and
Kate are always running in the background
