This needs to go at the top of the file... good.<br>

</div>When you look up the command line arguments for an application, usually<br>
required options are seen in diamond braces (<>). I was going for the<br>
same thing here. You need to give the getRecording() method the chanid<br>
and starttime of the recording you want it to find.<br>

</div>This was supposed to rename the potential several resultant files coming<br>
out of `mythccextractor`. Since you're not using `mythccextractor`,<br>

<br>
</div>this down here was supposed to replace it. Additionally, unless you're<br>
trying to limit certain modules to certain scopes, either to keep the<br>
namespace clean or because that scope may never be entered and there not<br>
be any need to import it, it's better to do your imports at the top of<br>
the file just so you know where to look for them.<br>
<div><br>

<br>
</div>You can't do anything until you get your recording from the backend, and<br>
you can't do that until you know what chanid and starttime you want the<br>
information for. Pulling that information out of your command line<br>
variables at the end of the script isn't going to do you any good.<br>
