It wasn't in the past.
I have been running trunk since Ramses Smeyers stopped making rpms.
Then I did an occasinal rpm for myself. Trunk.
Then there was a pause.
Then I took the latest trunk and it's almost up and running.
We fixed the scheduling thing which wasn't a trunk issue.
QT4 did not show me problems either.

It's only that for now the program appears to be runnign OK, except that
no mpg files are created. (!)

Yes, yet stepping back to 21-fixes is not made easy because of this.
There's some database-difference.
I won't do that; I'm not gonna spend an unpredictable amount of time
getting everything as it is now.

So please tell me the easiest way to 'downgrade' to 21-fixes.
Can I convert the database?
Keep most of my settings etc?

Not entirely.
See above. The current database lists recordings back in 2006. There may
be 'proof' beyond that.

Is that the only route?
