DetailsDescription:
Unable to set temp directory from preferences in menu. You select the directory you want and it seems like it selects it. Go back into preferences it will show your temp directory set as your home directory. When you try to burn a project it will try to erase files in your home directory.

Steps to reproduce: 1. Install recorder 2. Set temp directory 3. Try to burn Will see errors as it tries to delete directories and files in your home directory as it attempts to clean its tmp dir. Workaround: 1. Manually edit ~/.config/recorder/recorderrc and enter correct temp directory. Severity: I consider this a serious bug since on initial run it will attempt to delete files in your home directory. |

"Recorder is no longer developed (in fact, I don't have a burner device). If you are looking for new features, you can grab the code and do it yourself or install another burning software."
Sergej, how about moving this package to unsupported (or just removing it), since it's both not maintained anymore and also may happen to delete files from users home directories?
