So, are you saying, when mythTV logs this, continuously, for the
entire duration of the show, it is incapable of determining that there
is an error?

In my own system, the sequence of events which caused this problem to
appear was a one shot upgrade from .22 to .24, which came along with a
mythbuntu upgrade, which (I would assume) also upgraded my DVB
drivers.  Ever since then, they system has been totally unreliable for
recording.

If there is extra debugging I should turn on now, or specific logs I
should capture the next time this problem occurs that would help us
find the actual cause, let me know.
