[mythtv-users] "The file for this recording cannot be found"

[Bobby Gill]

I was just editing a few old SNLs down to the bits to keep, and in the
middle of editing this one the FE just froze. I killed mythfrontend process
on it, noticed the backend had died (restarted w/script on its own) and
restarted mythfrontend, only to go into Watch Recordings and when trying to
play the one I was editing, getting "The file for this recording cannot be
found". Here's the relevant mythbackend.log output:

Did a quick ls | grep saturday and found it where it always has been in the
recording dir:

/media/mythtv # ls | grep -i ben
Saturday Night Live-11.01.08- Untitled- Host Ben Affleck; David Cook
performs..mpg
Saturday Night Live-11.01.08- Untitled- Host Ben Affleck; David Cook
performs..mpg.png
/media/mythtv #

How the heck do I resolve this? Thanks for any help
