BTW, now I'm not sure if this patch will help at all, it doesn't seem to 
be that simple, but it takes abit of time for me to get a zero byte 
recording.. Can somebody please apply the zero_dvb_test.patch, run 
mythbackend with the "-v all" option, and try to make some recordings? 
I'm still waiting for one to turn up (7 hrs of random recording is 
probably not enough), if you got one before me, please post the relevant 
section of the logs.....

For me, it's easier to get a zero byte recording if you use a single 
card to record shows on different channels (i.e. 0300-0330 on channel A, 
0330-0430 on channel B, and so on)... Set your recordings to end abit 
late also.. Thanks....
