There are a few posts about QT bugs but this all seems solved in 0.23. I've spent a lot of time on this and I finally found the problem, one of my channel names had trailing binary data (nulls I think) that was stuffing up the parsing of QUERY_RECORDINGS Play. I'm on a Mac but this is irrelevant.
If you'd like to make a patch to remove non-printing characters from the
channel name and callsign determined by the scanner, I'm sure it would
be accepted.
