smtube freezes when recording video

Smtube started misbehaving after an ArchLinux upgrade on my laptop in early January 2015 (I usually upgrade every week).  Now, whenever downloading a video, smtube freezes and the 'Recordings' window shows "1 seconds remaining".  The downloaded videos play fine.  However, if several video downloads are attempted simultaneously, the freeze occurs as soon as the first download completes, and downloading of the remaining videos in the download list stops.

I wonder if anyone has experienced this problem.  Attempting to solve the problem, I removed and re-installed smtube, but no effect.  I'm also out of ideas what else could I try?

Re: smtube freezes when recording video

My problem was caused by my manual editing of the smtube.ini file.
