[mythtv-users] BE not recording, log snippet - any ideas?

[Steve Pugh]

Hi all,
  
 My FE/BE has been  skipping  some new recordings lately, much to the dismay of my lovely bride and  to the glee of my friends who gloat about how their TiVos never skip a  beat (liars).
  
 These have been new episodes, and they show up  in MythWeb's "Scheduled Recordings" page as upcoming, but for example  Monday's episode of Surface did not record.  Fortunately, I had  been running mythbackend -verbose, and piping its output to a text  file.  Here is what I noticed:
  
  I'll ask for help here rather than at the end, as the log is a bit lengthy.  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
  
  Best,
         Steve
  
  Early Monday morning, a chunk of log output started to repeat with only  a second or so in between repeats.  It started like this (man, I  hope this formats properly...I'm using Yahoo!Mail):
  
      2005-11-21 06:26:44.803 Scheduled 86 items in 0.3 = 0.11 match + 0.19 place
      2005-11-21 06:26:44.806 45      BACKEND_MESSAGE[]:[]SCHEDULE_CHANGE[]:[]empty
  
  At the time when Surface was due to record, there was this one-line blip:
      2005-11-21 10:00:02.147 backend still changing state, waiting..
  
  Otherwise, the log was nothing but this block of text, repeating:
