Tried it again after an update just now which updated a few things from 
the mythubuntu repository

This is two recordings of the UK program "restless".  The first - which 
everyone saw I am trying to collapse right down so chose the EP profile, 
the second (which people didn't see) I am leaving at SP .  This allows 
the two recordings to just fit on a DVD.

However it fails on the first recording (If I leave this one out, then 
it will fail the same sort of way on the other recording).  Progress.log 
has the following
