 MythTV randomly fails to record shows.[[BR]]
 What I've done/tried:[[BR]]
 * Made sure I have plenty of diskspace left, and propper access rights to
 the recordingfolder[[BR]]
 * Made sure the channel is "tune-able" - by tuning into the channel using
 LiveTV.[[BR]]
 * Tried updating my DVB-C drivers[[BR]]
 * Updated MythTV to the latest -fixes release (20887)[[BR]]

 My setup:[[BR]]
 Two TT-1501C DVB-C Cards.[[BR]]
 Raid'ed storage folder[[BR]]
 MythTV 0.21-fixes rev. 20887[[BR]]

 I could expect my QAM of being a tad to slow to decode - right after the
 tuning... But I havent been able to verify that (And honestly, I don't
 know how to verify it!)[[BR]]


 As a workaround I guess MythTV could retry to start the recording, if it
 for some reason fails.[[BR]]
 I see MythTV KNOWS the recording went wrong, since it's saying: "Deleting
 stale pending recording"[[BR]]

 I've attached a log where it failed to record the show "Top Gear"
