Record button is visually disabled if dvsink-files is not attached.
Which also brings up the "* STOP" message, so there is not missing it.

I have been using .9 for over a year.
The only issue is the behaviour of the Fade button with regard to PnP
- the result is a bit confusing which causes the operator a bit of

it." because there really isn't a reason not to use it.
The "Record disabled when not recording" makes up for it.
