r10335, Note that 1.8.0rc2 won't work with kaa.base from svn but the other way round does, ie. you can use kaa.base-0.3.0 with Freevo rel-1, after the small changes to record_client. > >> The recordserver does not shut down, needs a kill -9. >> > > > What do you mean by that? > With the current svn version "freevo recordserver stop" > stops the recordserver without any problems. > And also a CTRL-C is working as expected... > I've noticed that it sometimes works and sometimes doesn't, I think that it doesn't work after a recording but does before. > >> I have quite a few uncommitted changes to recordserver since 1.8.0rc2, >> while I'm splitting up the record schedule xml into schedule which will >> be a schedule built from favorites, manual and deleted stored as pickle >> files rather than xml.

I think that it works first time after the recordserver has been started but not afterwards. Simply by deleting the site-packages-kaa and installing kaa-base-0.3.0 it records every time.
