The plugin.shutdown() function iterated through the types of plugins and though the list of plugins for each type. Problem is a plugin can be added to multiple type lists resulting in it being called several times, once for each type list it appears in. >> Second plugins.shutdown.shutdown() used os.system() to run the freevo >> script to stop freevo.
