Well Evan I finally found a command that stops the HDPVR recording. I got rid 
of the VCR_POST_REC command in my local conf and instead, I added a string of 
commands to the VCR_CMD. Here's what the local conf now looks like....


CONFIG_VERSION = 5.27 
TV_RECORD_DIR = '/home/tvphil/Videos'
TV_CHANNELS = 'Comcast','Comcast','NA3'
VCR_CMD = 'cat /dev/video1> %(filename)s + & sleep %(seconds)s ; kill -9 $!'
TV_DEVICE = '/dev/video1'
TV_INPUT = 1
TV_REC_SIZE = (1920, 1080)
TV_RECORD_FILE_SUFFIX = '.mpg'
DEBUG = 5
DEBUG_CHILDAPP = 1

I think this would also be a good addition to the wiki, for anyone else who 
wants to use this device for recording with Freevo.As you may have noticed the 
NA3 at the end of the TV_Channels, that's to keep the recordserver to stop 
telling me it has no conf for US cable channels. For anyone else reading this, 
this device is the Hauppauge HD PVR, model 1212.
