[me tv 2.0.1]Failed to Communicate with Me TV server. No record button

[YAFU]

I have Kubuntu 11.04 Natty 64bits. Using USB ISDB-Tb tuner (dvb_usb_dib0700). The problem happens with me-tv 2.0.1. I've tried installing from source first and then the GetDeb package. In both cases when I start the program I get the following message:

Failed to communicate with Me TV server. Would you like the Me TV client to attempt to start it?

By clicking "yes" the program opens and I can see the channels, but no record button available. I have available the "Scheduled Recordings" button, but I think can not configure anything when I enter there.

Side note, with ISDB-Tb standard [MPEG-TS;Video: AVC (h264);Audio:AAC] only works with "vlc" as engine. With "gstreamer" nothing works (no video, no audio). With "xine" I have video but no audio.

The version 2.0.1 don't have the same level of fonctionnality then the
version 1.3.6. Espatially the recording options.

The PPA version the version 1.4.0 is up:
https://launchpad.net/~me-tv-development/+archive/ppa

Hello. The previous package (1.4.0-0~30~oneiric1) continued giving me the error message. The actual version (1.4.0-0~31~oneiric1) works correctly. In this version vido and audio works well too (ISDB-Tb > AVC h264 - aac).
A question, In this version is normal that does not appear the record button like in the 2.0.1 version? I only can record programming in "schedule" section.

[Frédéric Côté (frederic-cote)]

You can right click on a EPG event, it will trigger the recording. You can
also click an EPG event, a window open to show you option and you have I
record button.

Cheers,
Frederic

Oh, I see.
Digital TV is very new in my country and EPG is experimental. I have EPG available only in 3 of 20 channels. A record button would be great.
Thanks Frederic!
