I can reproduce your problem. I have three saved programs and all refuse to play if Media Catcher is recording. Press the "Stop Recording" button, then the streams play. So, you are not crazy. Or we both are.
Here is a new twist. This was not successful but proves interesting. I added application/x-fcs to the MIME types because that is what the server is sending. Then I followed exactly Applians video instructions for capturing imeem with Web Stream Dumper. No success. Until...
If you lower the Web Stream Dumper minimum dump size from 400k to 100k, then Web Stream Dumper begins to capture. It will record lots of 100k -> 125k .tmp files in succession. That's why I added application/x-fcs, to see if that helped Media Catcher recognize a stream. But the tmp files are unplayable.
One interesting bug in Media Catcher, is that after a tmp file is saved and the green check appears, indicating a stream is captured and saved, in the GUI two or more already saved tmp files' sizes will continue to increment upward in size. After the complete stream is viewed however, none of the dozens of tmp files are playable. The one byte hex view is gibberish. Or at least no hex views contain FLV header or metadata info.
