[mythtv-users] frontend hangs when recording live tv.

i have 0.16 installed on debian unstable, using the precompiled dpkgs.  
i have a hauppauge 250 using the 0.2.0-rc3c drivers.  tv input is 
connected to the tuner.

everything seems to work perfect except when watching live tv if i push 
"record" i get the following:

the osd displays:  Recording 'Show Name'
the picture continues to play for about a second and then freezes
i have to kill the frontend, though the backend continues to properly 
record.

here are the frontend and backend outputs for the relevant time period. 
  any thoughts?  the frontend appears a little more interesting . . .  
(the host name is applejack, and the 60 minutes show is what i was 
trying to record).
