 I'm running MythTV 0.19. One of my tuners is hooked up to a Motorola cable
 box, connected via a serial port, and controlled via the dct-channel
 program. This evening, our digital cable went out, so dct-channel would
 fail when trying to tune a digital cable channel. So, when it tried to
 record a program on digital cable, this happened:

 error 1

 Reverting to kState_None
 2006-08-24 21:59:40.640 TVRec(18): Changing from RecordingOnly to None

 ..this is fine and good (it cancelled the recording, as expected, since it
 can't tune it); however, the program was marked as Previously Recorded, so
 it wasn't automatically scheduled to re-record. I had to go "Forget Old"
 in Mythweb to get it to re-schedule the recording.
