I am getting this problem nearly all the time I try and watch live  
TV. Not between shows, and generally there is nothing I can do about  
it except start recording what I want to watch then go to the  
recording section and watch it like that. So recording are working fine.

I have however found some details in the front end log that are  
relevant :-

I have plenty of disc space and both the frontend and backend are  
running us the mythtv user.
