I just upgraded to KnoppMyth R5C7 about two days ago myself.

Welcome to 0.19. It's one of the new "features" of Myth now. LiveTV  
is now treated as a recording. No ringbuffer is used, and your LiveTV  
recordings are kept in a group separate from the other recordings.  
They, by default, autoexpire every 24 hours, but this interval can be  
changed.

I had a similar problem when I first got my system going. I assumed  
mine was because I had a recording set to -2 priority, and much chaos  
ensued.

*raises hand* However, since I got a recording or two on my hard  
disk, I haven't seen the problem crop up again.
