Hi all,


I haven't had much time to get my Freevo up and going lately, but I have hit a snag
that I'd like some help with. Please?


I am running RH 9, Freevo 1.3.4 (RPM install), ATI Wonder VE, Matrox video card
w/ TV out.


When I try to record, I am trying to use the recording daemon via cronjob. Here is my
cron entry:


*/5 * * * * /usr/local/freevo/freevo execute src/tv/record_daemon.py


I was getting a few errors mailed to me when I tried to record. When it came time for a
scheduled recording, I got an error message from the cron job saying it couldn't find a
library.


I looked through the Wiki, and found a fix:

The fix is to edit freevo/src/tv/record_daemon.py and add the second line as seen below: import os os.environ['LD_PRELOAD'] = '' # Add this line to stop GLIBC_2.X preload errors


This seemed to fix my problem, I thought.


I scheduled a recording (Saved By The Bell -- don't ask) and I got a nice little black and yellow
icon in Freevo when I viewed the scheduled recordings at the appropriate time. I thought
everything was going great, but when I went to view the shows, there was nothing there to
view.


I remember reading something about how the daemon may not stop recording. How can I check this?

Any other thoughts?

One last item, how do I stop the flood of e-mail from cron? Do I want to?

Thanks,
Mike
