Ok, but the recordserver correctly stops the record when I'm using 

VCR_CMD= mplayer.....

Why doesn't it correctly stops the record when I'm using

VCR_CMD = mencoder ..... 

?

The record starts from a popen call in recordserver.py helpers. It sould
use the pid of the called program to stop it, ( def handleEvents(self):)
but why not with mencoder...
