[mythtv-users] Recording kills MythFrontend on playback

[Devan Lippman]

I recorded an mpeg2ts stream from my cable box via firewire just as I
always do only this time when I try to play back the file it results
in the frontend exiting.  Files recorded before and after it play fine
but not this one file (Although it does play the video in the preview
window before I select the recording).

I'll enclose two snippets from two different attempts to playback the file:

Also is it strange that I am unable to edit once I transcode my
recordings to mpeg4?
