Tanja, thanks for the reply. I'm always nervous in times like this. You guys 
have been hammering on Freevo for a long time and here I'm just stepping up to 
the plate. But we all have to start somewhere, right?

I should have mentioned I'm using version 1.7.3, but I know if I'm serious 
about contributing, I should download the SVN to avoid problems like this. 
Tonight, I hit upon the exact idea you say is already implemented, that 
RecordedProgramItem should inherit from VideoItem. When I tried it, though, it 
caused a whole lot of other problems (mainly in set_url). If you say this is 
all sorted out and cool after rev 9842, then I'll make sure to check it out 
(literally?) tomorrow. Who knows, maybe other things I've fixed in 1.7.3 have 
been fixed already in the SVN copy.

If I put in a print statement for debugging, that will just drop things to the 
console? That's fine for quick-and-dirty output when chasing bugs.

Alright, I just downloaded the SVN and it looks like I had rev 9763 of RM 
before. I'll definitely take a look at the latest one (10147) and let you know 
how things turn out. I'm putting this on pause, since the majority of my 
problems might be solved.


Thank you for detailing the process on how items are set up. I think I was 
getting confused because in videoitem.py it does a player check in actions to 
decide what submenu playback items should appear, and then there is a 'just in 
case' clause in play where it does the same check if self.possible_player is 
still empty and sets things up.

I'll be back! I'm sure of it.

James
