OK, so this it what Freevo does to remember the path (taken from your
debug messages, thanks):

| ['../lib/python2.4/site-packages',
| '/usr/local/freevo-2.0/bin',

So you start freevo-tvserver with a relative path while I did not
think of that. Doing a chdir with a relative path is a bit stupid from
the tvserver script :). Fixed in svn now. Thanks for the help.
