What was the exact ircat command?
I should be:
ircat --config=/etc/freevo/lircrc freevo
You can change the path to lircrc in local_conf.py with:
LIRCRC = '/etc/freevo/lircrc'

What TV_SETTINGS say? IIRC these were used by some modules. But I don't
think that this is the problem.

IIRC the record_group should be set to None either left out, as None is
the default.
record_group=None)

You possible don't need TV_IVTV_OPTIONS, if they are incorrect then it
won't work. I'd comment them out until the recordserver is working.
