[mythtv-users] Random recording failure

[Mike Carron]

I've been seeing a random event where a scheduled recording will start 
on time and show in Upcoming Recordings as Currently Recording, but no 
recording is actually created. Also, it will remain as Currently 
Recording until the BE is stopped and restarted. The BE is 0.27-fixes on 
Mythbuntu 12.04. Here is what appears to be a relevant segment of the log:

The program in question was Guy's Grocery Games, it was assigned to be 
recorded on tuner CAEA-0. The recording did not exist despite the log 
entry to the contrary. It had been deleted with permission to rerecord.

Failures like this are not frequent but they do tend to occur with shows 
that cause wife to become upset(Murphy's Law). Is there something I can 
do to get rid of this problem?
