Last night, I was looking at an earlier version of recordserver.py that did not have this error and saw that it was using "rpc.connect(recordserver)" instead of "rpc.register(recordserver)". On a whim, I changed that statement in you lastest svn version and, lo and behold, recordserver was able to launch successfully and record programs. However, when I recorded back-to-back programs, the second one was still starting 1 minute late: 2009-03-18 22:29:50,810 DEBUG generic_record.py (157): Record_Thread::run: mode=idle 2009-03-18 22:29:51,643 DEBUG recordserver.py (1438): RecordPostProcess.run() finish 2009-03-18 22:30:00,004 DEBUG recordserver.py (921): overlap_duration=0 2009-03-18 22:30:00,006 INFO recordserver.py (934): CALLED RECORD STOP 1: Wed Mar 18 22:00->22:30 (22:00) I33.28460028.microsoft.com ALF 2009-03-18 22:30:00,007 INFO recordserver.py (954): delaying: Wed Mar 18 22:30->23:00 (22:30) I47.28458302.microsoft.com The Exterminators 2009-03-18 22:30:00,512 DEBUG generic_record.py (157): Record_Thread::run: mode=stop 2009-03-18 22:30:01,016 DEBUG generic_record.py (157): Record_Thread::run: mode=idle 2009-03-18 22:31:00,003 INFO recordserver.py (956): going to record: Wed Mar 18 22:30->23:00 (22:30) I47.28458302.microsoft.com The Exterminators 2009-03-18 22:31:00,005 INFO recordserver.py (974): start recording: Wed Mar 18 22:30->23:00 (22:30) I47.28458302.microsoft.com The Exterminators Program 1 completed post-processing at 22:29:51,643 with CALLED RECORD STOP at 22:30:00,006 and, even though overlap_duration=0, program 2 did not start recording until a full minute later at 22:31:00,005. Seeing that generic_record.py was involved, I checked svn and saw that you had updated this too for the recording time issue, so I grabbed that file as well to see if it would make any difference. Unfortunately, the 1 minute delay between program recordings was still there. When I get some more time and am feeling more ambitious, I'll install the svn versions of kaa and freevo-1 and see if that makes any difference. Thanks for your help.
