  I would like to vote for Niko and changes here, as I too think that
'nauhoittaa' translates into English more like 'to tape', and tapes are
not used, not in my computer anyway, someone might have a tape storage
robot :-) emulating a disk.

  'tallentaa' I think is a good word to use, see this name for
an association of sound and picture recording producers: 'Suomen Ääni- ja
kuva*tallenne*tuottajat ÄKT ry'

  So I am all for the patch.  It has kind of bothered me a bit too.

Btw.  line 1874 'Recording' is the title of Recording setup menu (Margin
at start/stop, priorities etc.)  'Tallennus' olisi hyvä.
