[mythtv-users] certain channels won't record

All,

I'm having some problems recording 2 channels via my HDHomeRun &
Digital cable.  Both channels tune fine while watching live TV, it's
just the recordings that don't work.  I get the following error (from
mythbackend.log):

2009-02-18 20:30:02.518 HDHRChan(10101708/1): device found at address
192.168.1.51
2009-02-18 20:30:02.608 AutoExpire: CalcParams(): Max required Free
Space: 3.0 GB w/freq: 8 min
2009-02-18 20:30:02.612 Started recording: Gary Unmarried "Gary's
Ex-Brother-in-Law": channel 3002 on cardid 6, sourceid 1
2009-02-18 20:30:03.086 Could not find channel 1_12 in CVCT
2009-02-18 20:30:03.124
VCT Cable: channels(2) tsid(0x0) seclength(77)
Channel #0 name(E3_8 WE) 1-8 mod(SCTE mode 2) cTSID(0x0)
 pnum(8) ETM_loc(0) access_ctrl(0) hidden(0)
path_select(0) out_of_band(0) hide_guide(0) service_type(2) source_id(8)


This happens for any recording I have on this channel, as well as one
other channel.  I had a hell of a time getting my qam channels into
myth properly, so it's possible I did something wrong in the channels
mysql table, but as the channels can tune okay in liveTV, I'm not sure
what the problems could be.  Can anyone point me in the right
direction?

I'm running .21 on mythbuntu 8.04.

I have attached three entries from my 'channel' table in case it would
help.  the first two are the ones that don't work, and the third one
is a channel that works without an issue.

thanks,
matt
