Comment:

 You need to enable AutoExpire.

 The file size prediction is working as intended for HDTV capable sources.

 19400000 /* bits per second */ / 8 /* bits in byte */ * 60 /* seconds in
 minute */ * 150 /* minutes in recording */ * 1.25 /* 25% safety */ = 25 GB

 Recordings shouldn't be suppressed because of this unless AutoExpire is
 disabled. There is no way for MythTV to know the channel transmits at just
 5000000 bps. You are welcome to improve GetMaxBitrate() to take previous
 recordings on the channel into account.
