Just in case someone might be interested - I`ve patched the script to use nuvexport instead, and I`ve been running it just fine for the last couple of weeks. It works great for me.
Mind you, this is just a hack of wififun´s code, and I don´t really do perl, but it works, so don´t shoot me for not doing it properly.

This also "solves" the file naming problems by naming the files with channel.startime instead, like this: 1007.20051201233000.ipod.mov
(I mean, you never see the original file names anyway in iTunes, see? iTunes takes care of everything and names it from the metadata.)
