[mythtv-users] Weird seeking problems

[Phill Wiggin]

It sounds like your recordedmarkup table in your database is messed up.  
You might want to run a check on your database tables (check the MySQL 
website for info).  Also, try running mythcommflag from the commandline 
(it'll need to reflag all of your recordings.. check 'mythcommflag 
--help' for specifics).

I've had that problem before, and those are the steps I used.
Good luck!
