Does anyone have any ideas on this issue?

Its hard to explain how annoying it is not to be able to watch 1+ TV shows.

Thanks.

I have a very weird issue with my MythTV frontend.  On a recording that is
> 55+ minutes long doing a seek forwards will fail.  If the playback is enough
> past the 55 minutes mark, doing a backwards seek will also fail.  Starting a
> recording after the 55 minute mark will make the recording start at the
> beginning of the recording.
