<div dir="ltr" class="">I rarely have any issues with my
production mythtv backend v31 on Ubuntu 20.04. However
this evening I tried to watch a recording that had just
started recording about 20 minutes earlier. The title
changed to a smaller text font and when I tried to select
it to view I got an error about the recording not ready to
view. I had this issue with both recordings that were
started at 7PM. Since I had a number of recordings that
were to start at 8pm. I just rebooted and hoped that would
fix things for the new recordings coming up. So the 7pm
recordings are lost, but I exported the backend log around
the time I had the problem to see if anyone can spot a
problem that needs to be fixed on my system or in general.
I'm running:

<div>I see a lot of permission denied errors in the log, might be
a hint there.</div>

<p>However this system has recorded gigabytes of programs while
these errors continue to accumulate.</p>
<p>Not sure what they mean.</p>
<p>Yesterday I always had a couple of football games being recorded
but it wasn't until 7PM with the start of 2 new recordings that I
had a problem of nothing being written to a file.</p>
<p>The only thing new yesterday was frontend related. I just built a
new x86_64 frontend with an Nvidia GT1030 gfx card on Archlinux
KDE Plasma. When I built mythtv I only configured the frontend and
it worked fine. However it was v0.31-118 and my backend is on
Ubuntu is v0.31-202010122044. Both the most current v31 releases.
I was using this frontend to view all recordings yesterday.<br>
</p>
<p>My backend was built about as standard as you could get from an
Ubuntu point of view, nothing weird.</p>
<p>It's what I've done before and has been recording fine since July
when I did the most recent complete rebuild. FWIW, I documented it
here:

<p>I checked this morning and all my recordings since the reboot
around 7:30pm last night have been fine.</p>
