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 ____________________________________________________________________________________ Looking for last minute shopping deals? Find them fast with Yahoo!
