Hello,

I use freevo recording server to record television from my DVB-T card. 
Recording works nice with mplayer or mencoder, but recording never stops.
I run freevo from Ubuntu Hardy.
In my local_config.py, there is :
VCR_CMD = (CONF.mplayer + ' ' + 'dvb://%(channel)s ' + '-dumpstream 
-dumpfile %(filename)s')

When looking at processes with ps -aux, I can see that recordserver 
launches a command like this one : "*/bin/sh *-c /usr/bin/mplayer 
dvb://M6 -dumpfile /home/freevo/recordings/M6.ts -dumpstream", instead 
of just /usr/bin/mplayer "dvb://M6" -dumpfile /home/freevo/recordings/M6.ts.
When it tries to kill the process, it kills only /bin/sh, and the child 
mplayer process continues to run.

I can't figure out why the generic record plugin executes my command 
with /bin/sh -c.

Thanks
