I've had a smilar problem happen before using my HDHomeRun. What
happend was that Comcast moved the frequency of a QAM channel. What
Myth or the HDHomeRun did with this situation was strange. The actual
recording on the moved channel would obviously fail with no warnings or
errors in the standard interface. But was was really a pain, the next
program that used the HDHomeRun on any good channel, no mater if it was
right after the moved channel or hours later, would fail in a similar
way to what you described. I would get a blank zero length files for a
program that should have recorded just fine.
Look at the recording directly before the failure.
