Hi,

I have tried this one twice and it seems to be reproducible.
I'm using cvs from 2003.06.19.

The setup:
Select two shows to record that are back to back same channel
Watch LiveTV, not the channel you want to record.
MythTV will tell you it wants to record etc, do nothing let it change
the channel and start recording.
When it tries to start recording the second show it'll choke and 
not record it or any other scheduled stuff after that.
At this point back/frontend are still alive and well, no seg but the 
backend has to be restarted to get recording working again.

console:
Changing from WatchingLiveTV to WatchingRecording
Changing from WatchingRecording to WatchingPreRecorded  
Fri Jul 4 21:45:02 2003:  wanted to record:
Alles Atze 1001 Fri Jul 4 21:45:00 2003
But current state is: 2
Unknown state transition: WatchingPreRecorded to None

The backend will display the 'state 2' error for all future recording
attempts.

I have my 'record past end of show' set to 600, don't know if
that's related. The Problem seems to be the two shows that are
back to back, it works with only one show to record.
