[mythtv-users] Could be a bug....could be finger trouble.....

I recently upgraded my Myth setup to 0.27-4 from the rpmfusion repos.

I've just noticed that there seems to have been a change from the way
recording of livetv (that is watching livetv and then hitting the
record button) seems to be happening.

Specifically:-

Start up a frontend into watching live TV mode (this should choose
your default channel..in my case Channel 1 - BBC One Terrestrial SD).

Now Change the channel by selecting another channel number, say
Channel 2 - BBC Two Terrestrial SD.

Now hit the record button either on the remote or an attached keyboard (R Key).

The channel being recorded is correct in that it stays on Channel 2,
however it captures the metadata and timing of the recording ending
from Channel 1 (so if you want to record a program that runs for 2
hours on Channel 2 but the program on Channel 1 ends in 15 minutes the
recording will end in 15 minutes).

Are other users seeing this same behaviour or is something broken on my setup?

Thanks in advance.

Tony.
