Last night a recording failed, which didn't give my wife much confidence
that she'll continue to be able to watch her shows now that we've cancelled
our Directv service. The "previously recorded" list shows "recorder failed"
for this recording. The backend log shows:

2012-04-09 21:58:29.312 TVRec(2): ASK_RECORDING 2 29 0 0
2012-04-09 21:59:01.625 TVRec(2): Changing from None to RecordingOnly

be found.

2012-04-09 21:59:02.773 ProgramInfo(1111_20120409215900.mpg), Error:
GetPlaybackURL: '1111_20120409215900.mpg' should be local, but it can not
be found.

and then some time later, at the time the recording was scheduled to end:

2012-04-09 23:10:00.280 TVRec(2): Changing from RecordingOnly to None
2012-04-09 23:10:00.424 Updating status for Smash:Understudy on cardid 2
(Tuning => Recorder Failed)

Is there any other place I can look to find out why it failed to record
this show?
