First to get it out the way.. Can the record server run without XMLTV installed?
Yes. You must still have TV_CHANNELS configured in your local_conf.py.
Assuming it can, how can I start the Record Server manually as a check? Whatever I try and organise the web interface resolutely announces the record server is offline/not active etc.

Freevo via RPM 1.3.4
Mplayer 0.92 and mencoder
I have tried to follow the instructions and have crontab running record_daemon.py every minute
Added the "fix" to avoid crashes (docs section 2.3.4)
Edited inittab according to the doc page (though I don't have a boot directory, but the record_server_init file is in the helpers directory within freevo???
Tried ./freevo recordserver with no apparent effect (merely starts freevo as usual)
Where do I go from here?
Things have changed a bit since the 1.3.4 release. The docs are probably more geared towards 1.4. Can you try out the 1.4-rc1 rpm's instead? I think you will have better luck. :)
