Brian, for recording problems check your log file in 
/var/log/freevo/internal-record_daemon-0.log
to see if it gives you any info on whats going on.

A while ago I was getting the infamous glibc error,
that prevented me from recording.  Not sure if that
problem was every fully resolved.

That particular error was as follows:
sh: relocation error: ./runtime/dll/libc.so.6: symbol
_dl_debug_files, version GLIBC_2.2 not defined in file
ld-linux.so.2 with link time reference

The fix for that error was adding the following inside
of src/tv/record_daemon.py.  Add the following line
after "import os".

import os
os.environ['LD_PRELOAD'] = '' # Add this line to stop
GLIBC_2.X preload errors

If it works let me know, and I'll go ahead an put this
info in the wiki.

Cheers,
-Rich
