Why should it ping? automount does that for you, if the host is not alive it will
unmount the mount point.

But how should Freevo be able to control a child of a child?
Freevo just has to worry on killing all the spwaned childs and it's
sub-childs. Since most of the helper processes do not notify anything
about spwaning sub-childs the only way i see to make this work is to
assign a

Currently none, just think ahead. It's probable that a child spawns a
child and with the current code you loose control of that.
Since it doesn't break anything i think

We should be able to do this by sending burn start and stop events, and
modifying the plugin that handles that image to also diaply something
when a burn is active..
Ok, do you know what is the plugin that manages/handles the cd image?

But state machines are admittedly not the way to program IMHO. Auto-generated

That exists already, VCR_PRE_REC and VCR_POST_REC, which can each point
to a command or script to be executed at the beginning or after recording.
Wow... this is greate.. had no idea...
What string formated variables this support?? such has the recorded file name?
And the script is executed
Well, since the command/script is called with popen and you don't wait
for it, i think the record server will happily continue to do it's work
while the command/script is being executed.
As for formatted strings i think the filename that the recording has
created (let's say x.avi) is mandatory.
Ok, great ...
Now, i was wondering if it is possible to use the freevo mplayer
configuration. Since freevo auto-detects mplayer (and let's the user
configure it) my plugin could use that configuration to find mplayer.
Is there any way to do it?

I haven't read the cart plugin, but if the cart has a unique Item Type

The plugins decides the burning actions mainly according to the items
