[SOLVED] gtk-recordmydesktop exit with error 256

I don't know what is happening with gtk-recordmydesktop after my last pacman update.
When I want to record something, the program stops prematurely with this error box :

"Recording is finished. recordMyDesktop has exited with status: 256.
Description:Error while parsing the arguments"

If I call gtk-recordmydesktop from the command line, the last output line is:

/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/recordMyDesktop/rmdPrefsWidget.py:239: GtkWarning: GtkSpinButton: setting an adjustment with non-zero page size is deprecated
  self.channelsSpinButton= gtk.SpinButton(self.channelsAdjustment, climb_rate=0.5, digits=0)

Does anyone knows how to fix this?

Note:
gtk-recordmydesktop version: 0.3.8-6
recordmydesktop version: 0.3.8.1-6
python2 version: 2.7.2-5

Re: [SOLVED] gtk-recordmydesktop exit with error 256

Finally I fixed this.
It is oxygen-transparent-git package that is breaking gtk-recordmydesktop.
If I select oxygen instead of oxygen-transparent style, it works without issues.
