Comment (by danielk):

 I got a log from John P. Poet with the debugging patch. Unfortunetly, it
 looks like the problem on my machine I thought was reproducing this
 problem is a in fact a different problem. Fortunately, think I know what
 is causing this problem.

 Whenever we create a new recorder instance there is a chance that the
 PAT/PMT is not set in the recorder until the next PAT/PMT table version
 update from the broadcaster, because it is already cached in the stream
 data after the signal monitor sees it. This can also happen if the stream
 data is changed, say when you first switch from an MPEG to an ATSC channel
 in LiveTV. I believe we didn't see this with the DVB recorder before the
 encryption monitor was changed last month because one of the calls we made
 to initialize the CAM had the side effect of sending these tables to the
 recorder.

 If my analysis is correct, then 3031-v2.patch should fix this problem.
