I've had something similar where my tuner devices will lock-up after some 
unspecified length of time (I've had between 2-4 weeks without a reboot before 
it locks up). Then because Myth can't access the tuners it decides it can't 
use them, then because it has no tuners it can't schedule any recordings so 
suddenly my upcoming recordings will be empty. A reboot of the machine 
normally fixes it.

Maybe something similar happened when myth tried to record all the channels at 
once. Have you ever had all your tuners recording at the same time before?
