I'm running the latest 'bleeding' build from ATrpms on CentOS5, 
receiving Freeview in the UK.

-0.21-173_trunk_r15333.el5.i386

Suddenly I get an immediate frontend segfault-and-exit on trying to 
'watch' recordings of a radio channel (BBC Radio3).

I usually strip out the audio as mp2 and play this using RealPlayer.  
That still works.

Terminal output for watching a TV recording:

Segmentation fault

Recent recordings were made with the 'TV only' Recording Profile;  I 
have previously used  'Normal', but recordings made with that profile 
now still cause the segfault.
