it gets worse:

set rUID to rec's UID
log rUID

tell application "EyeTV"
	with timeout of 3 seconds
		set eyeTVrec to recordings whose unique ID is my rUID
...

results in:

	(*195008719*)
	get every recording whose unique ID = rUID
EyeTV got an error: Can't get every recording whose unique ID = rUID

but in my little test script:

set rUID to 195008719
tell application "EyeTV"
	with timeout of 3 seconds
		set eyeTVrec to recordings whose unique ID is my rUID
...

i get the specified record:

	get every recording whose unique ID = 195008719
		{recording id 1.95008719E+8}

wtf?!?!?!?!?!? why is rUID not being evaluated in my .app???
