smtube fails to record YT video, and then crashes when "X" clicked.

[Scott Cowles Jacobs]

When I entered "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_V_xEw4WNHk"
into the search field, and then right-clicked, and selected "Record Video",
the list came up, and it showed the video entry, and said "Starting".
It never got beyond that, never recorded.
A few minutes later, I clicked on the "x" to stop the attempt,
but the smtube window and smtube recordings window disappeared.

I repeated: brought up smtube, entered the YT site, etc.
Same thing.

Lastly, I started it from a terminal, and got the following:
"scott@scott-ASUS-M2N68-AM-PLUS:~$ smtube
Object::disconnect: Unexpected null parameter
Object::disconnect: Unexpected null parameter
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
"

[Also, on another note, in case it's useful, many, many YT videos fail to play directly in smtube, but play just fine when recorded with smtube and played from the smtube recording list window, when the recording is finished.]
