Apparently 'type -a tovid' reports tovid twice for one installation.
When this happens, it may mean that you have your PATH environment
variable is redundant -- /usr/bin could be listed twice if you 'echo
$PATH'. For each /usr/bin in PATH, typa -a will report an instance of
tovid.

You can do one of a few things:
 * fix your path if it is indeed redundant
 * install the development version of tovid (from Subversion checkout)
which uses version numbers to find multiple tovid installations. Two
tovids of the same version won't cause an error.
 * remove the multiple installation finder in /usr/bin/tovid-init
