New description:

 About two days ago I reported how mythtv lost some TV recordings.

 Well I've been able to reproduce it again. It always happens if there are
 two episodes in a row of a program..

 Today, there was two episodes of "Charmed" playing in a row. Of course I
 will never admit that I wanted to watch and record this show and it was
 purely for testing purposes.

 Anyway, there was one episode going from 8:30PM to 9:25PM and the other
 from 9:25PM to 10:20PM

 In mythweb, in TV Listing I clicked on the first episode and selected
 "Record only this showing" and validated.
 Went back into TV listing, the second episode of charmed was gone from the
 list and the first one was now filling the time 8:30PM to 10:20PM

 On clicking on this episode again, in the summary of the recording it
 said:
 "Fri, Feb 3 (Rerun)
 08:30:00 PM to 10:20:00 PM (55 mins)
 (Search:   IMDB  -  TV.com  -  Google )

 As you can see, while it showed the timing to go from 8:30PM to 10:20PM,
 the length wasn't correct (55 minutes instead of 110 minutes)
 Going into the backend status page, it showed that encoder 1 was recording
 "" and that it would end at 9:20PM.

 From there I went back into the TV Listing, and the two episodes listing
 were gone...

 Then I had to do something, when I went back mythfront had crashed with a
 "Segmentation Fault".


 Summary: each time I try to record a TV episode, that is followed by
 another one, things will get messy and sooner or later, mythfronted *will*
 crash.

 sorry , I do not have the backtrace, I compiled mythtv without debugging

Comment:

 No backtrace.
