problem scripting eyetv


  • Subject: problem scripting eyetv

i'm trying to extract info for a particular recording: i have the eyetv bundle filename: "Exploring Space_ The Quest for Life - 3_7_07 8_05 PM.eyetv"

tell application "EyeTV"
	with timeout of 3 seconds
		set eyeTVrec to recordings whose location contains my eyeBundle
...

but all i get is:

EyeTV got an error: Can't get every recording whose location contains eyeBundle of «script».

if i run the same code in a test script (not my humongous .app)

set eyeBundle to "Exploring Space_ The Quest for Life - 3_7_07 8_05 PM.eyetv"
tell application "EyeTV"
	with timeout of 3 seconds
		set eyeTVrec to recordings whose location contains my eyeBundle
		repeat with rec in eyeTVrec
			rec's location
		end repeat
	end timeout
end tell

there's no problem:

tell application "EyeTV"
get every recording whose location contains "Exploring Space_ The Quest for Life - 3_7_07 8_05 PM.eyetv"
{recording id 1.95008719E+8}
get location of recording id 1.95008719E+8
file "toms160gB:Users:Shared:DVR:renamedRecs:EyeTV Archive:Exploring Space_ The Quest for Life - 3_7_07 8_05 PM.eyetv:000000000b9f98cf.eyetvr"
end tell


can i buy a clue here?
