Trouble is that this happened sometimes and sometimes not. Anyway it's a pain fixing the recordserver as it takes lots of time testing... In svn there is a new version which should fix this and here is the log: 21:13:54,756 INFO RECORD_START Thu Mar 19 20:15->21:15 (20:15) Mein neues Leben 21:14:45,000 INFO currently_recording=Thu Mar 19 20:15->21:15 (20:15) Mein neues Leben 21:14:45,005 INFO CALLED RECORD STOP 1: Thu Mar 19 20:15->21:15 (20:15) Mein neues Leben 21:14:45,007 INFO delaying: Thu Mar 19 21:15->22:15 (21:15) Hagen hilft! 21:14:45,939 INFO RECORD_STOP Thu Mar 19 20:15->21:15 (20:15) Mein neues Leben 21:14:45,941 INFO post-processing started for Thu Mar 19 20:15->21:15 (20:15) Mein neues Leben 21:14:46,438 INFO RECORD_START Thu Mar 19 21:15->22:15 (21:15) Hagen hilft! 21:14:53,224 INFO post-processing finished for Thu Mar 19 20:15->21:15 (20:15) Mein neues Leben 21:15:45,006 INFO currently_recording=Thu Mar 19 21:15->22:15 (21:15) Hagen hilft! The above shows that: - the recording was started less than a second after the last one was finished. - the post-processing was done in its own thread > 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.
