[mythtv-users] mythtv can't find its recordings (nor can I)

I can set up recordings, and myth seems to think it's doing them, but
then when I try to watch them, I get the message:
1251_20091116200000.mpg does not exist in any recognized storage group
directories for this host.
The directory /var/lib/mythtv/recordings, which I think is where
they're supposed to be, doesn't have the recording. (It got about 30
seconds of a recording once, but all the other times I've tried, it
hasn't had anything.)
I thought it might be a permissions problem, but that directory has
the same permissions (drwxrwsr-x) as /var/lib/mythtv/livetv, which
gets recordings put into it all the time.
The log doesn't have anything that I find alarming. Here's the
portion from last night when I was trying to record "House":

This is a fresh install of mythbuntu. There seems to be lots of space

When I die and there's a memorial service, I want you to go to the
piano and play _The Man I Love_ in my key. If I don't come out on that
stage, then you'll know I'm gone.
Kitty Carlisle Hart, (Quoted at her memorial service, where they did
in fact play _The Man I Love._)
