Some time ago I upgraded to 0.23.

yan at selene:/var/log/mythtv$ mythfrontend --version
Please include all output in bug reports.
MythTV Version   : 24007M
MythTV Branch    : branches/release-0-23-fixes
Network Protocol : 56
Library API      : 0.23.20100314-1
QT Version       : 4.4.3
Options compiled in:
 linux release using_oss using_alsa using_backend using_directfb 
using_dvb using_frontend using_hdhomerun using_hdpvr using_iptv 
using_ivtv using_joystick_menu using_lirc using_mheg using_opengl_video 
using_opengl_vsync using_qtdbus using_qtwebkit using_v4l using_x11 
using_xrandr using_xv using_xvmc using_bindings_perl 
using_bindings_python using_opengl using_vdpau using_ffmpeg_threads 
using_live using_mheg

Ever since then, all recordings end up really, really short - just the 
first few minutes get saved.

yan at selene:/var/log/mythtv$ ls -lh 
/data20/mythtv/recordings/2292_20100414163000.mpg
-rw-r--r-- 1 mythtv mythtv 8,0M 14. dub 17.00 
/data20/mythtv/recordings/2292_20100414163000.mpg

That's 8 mb of a 30 minute recording; about the first 90 seconds or so.

Here's the backend log:

Anyone have any idea what the last line is about?  Or what else might be 
going on?

Thanks
