Sorry, I've not communicated this clearly. There're two issues:

   1) mplayer isn't getting started properly by childapp.py, so my
      recordings weren't happening. No tracker item for this, was raising
      it here first. Fixed by rolling back childapp.py to r9560.

   2) xine.py is not terminating properly (a recording finishes at a
      black screen), and then pressing "exit" crashes Freevo. Tracker item
      #1745076. Fixed by rolling back xine.py to r9598.

Me neither. Feisty has later versions, but I remember reading here
some problems with the latest version of Ubuntu & Freevo?

Will do.

Hmm.

Understood completely! :-)

Will do.
