My VCR_CMD is as follows, but I don't believe IVTV uses it. Once I had
live tv running, record worked as well. It sounds like you may not have
activated the IVTV recording by doing the following:
plugin.remove('tv.generic_record')
plugin_record = plugin.activate('tv.ivtv_record')
For the record, here are are the other pieces of my setup (US NTSC cable).
VCR_CMD = (CONF.mencoder + ' ' +
'tv:// ' + # New mplayer requires this.

Hey Davin, what are you using for your VCR_CMD now? Once I added the
VIDEO_GROUPS, viewing live TV worked, but it looks like the
recordserver is still using mencoder tv:// when it records.

I just went through this myself. You need to configure your
VIDEO_GROUPS. Freevo is currently trying to use mplayer tv:// which
does not work with ivtv. edit your local_conf as follows and give it
another shot. This was just added to the wiki yesterday.
VIDEO_GROUPS = [
VideoGroup(vdev='/dev/video0',
adev=None,
input_type='tuner',
input_num=4,
tuner_norm='NTSC',
tuner_chanlist='us-cable',
desc='Regular cable',
group_type='ivtv',
recordable=True),
]
