[mythtv] svn 7441: No errors, but file not created?

After being gone for over a week, I came back and decided to update to
the latest svn version.  I did a fresh "check out" just to make sure I
did not end up with any configuration conflicts.

Everything compiled fine, and mythbackend started up just fine. 
However, when it went to record a show, no file was created.  The
backend log shows no errors, and indicates that it started the record
process just fine:

I immediately realized something was wrong, when I did not hear any
disk activity.  I checked the directory where shows are supposed to be
saved, and a new file had not been created.

I had been using svn 7267.  When I went back to that version, all was
well again.

It has been long enough since I updated, that I am wondering if there
is a "step" I need to do before the latest version will work properly?

Thanks,

John
