Comment (by Bradley Kite <bradley.kite at gmail.com>):

 Hi all,

 I initially posted this ref #1153.

 I have some logs attached and some further info on the problem that is
 occuring.

 It would appear as if the back-end is renaming the ring-buffer 2 seconds
 after its initially switched it.

 The Simpsons ran on Channel 4 from 18:00 to 18:30, at which time Hollyoaks
 started.

 The problem occured at between 18:30:02 and 18:30:07 - the back-end
 initially decided that the recoding of Hollyoaks should be
 /mnt/store//1004_20060831180000.mpg - which is correct in my view because
 thats when the program started.

 However, 2 seconds later it decided that the recording should in fact be
 /mnt/store//1004_20060831183002.mpg - I dont know why it does this.

 The front-end "knows" that its getting near the end of the Simpsons,
 because it starts making
 calls to IsReallyNearEnd(), but then at 18:30:02 it tries to open
 myth://127.0.0.1:6543/1004_20060831183000.mpg which would/should be the
 correct file name, but instead the back-end has renamed it to be
 1004_20060831183002.

 I've attached front-end and back-end logs with all this, and have added
 some comments.

 Any help will be much appreciated.

 btw, front-end and back-end are on the same machine, so this shouldnt be a
 clock issue.

 If any further info is required, please let me know and I'll try and
 obtain it.

 Regards

 Brad.
