if you let it sit long enough without pressing anything
does it come back alive?
is the hard drive light blinking fast and furious while it's frozen?

ok try this to see if we are having the exact same problem

1) -play the problem recording
    -hit "e" (or  "m" and choose edit recording) to get into the editor
    -hit "z" to load the cutlist
        - there should be a red block right at the end
          starting at the point where it freezes, going right to the end
    -hit "page down"  a few times to get to the end of the recording
    -hit "enter" and choose "delete this cutpoint" 
                (at this point  the freeze is fixed for me)

    -optionally hit "enter" again and choose "delete before this frame"
    -hit "page up" a couple of times followed by "esc"
    -now watch the ending, for me -> no more freezing
