I tried to move the Gst code into a python thread, hoping that closing
the vaapisink X.org window would kill only that thread, allowing the
main application thread to do the cleanup. Unfortunately the whole
application gets killed when the vaapisink window is closed, without the
signal handler being called.
IIUC the Alt+F4 (or close button) should just make the window manager to
send SIGINT to the window process which should be caught by
signal(signal.SIGINT, exit_handler). But it is not.
I could run the cursor-hiding process from bash, wrapping the python
application, but I would like to run everything from the main python
app, if possible.
Thanks a lot in advance for any hints.
Best regards,
Pavel.
