One thing is you have an old version of ardour. The old versions recorded
both channels in one wav file I think, so this may be the problem. Also,
this script isn't meant to cope with mono or multichannel tracks, just
stereo. So you could either upgrade ardour, or rewrite the script to pull
both channels out of one wav. (Not hard).

I wrote it for recording and streaming audio from a community radio
station, where we're going to be recording a series of shows one day after
the next - the idea of the script is to make it easy to archive all the
recorded sessions at the end of the day, rather than having to mess about
with exporting each region individually, or splitting a single record
session using an audio editor.
