Hello everyone,

Just a quick update: I now highly suspect that the reason for these
segmentation faults is using the EIT programme guide. Based on a
problem on another thread, I decided to switch to using xmltv to
download the program guides, and I seem to be able to record as per
normal.

I do have "ac-tex damaged" errors all over the logs, but it seems to
have done the trick. I'll keep testing.

Cheers,
/ken
