This just happened to me again with another program, but this time the
process didn't continue forever, and just said:
header damaged
decoding error: -1 back from avcodec
Broken packet: V 117440512

(the third line came several seconds after the first two). However, I    
still couldn't get mythfrontend to do anything, even quit. It was
redrawing the window, so it wasn't frozen, but it was in a state where it
wasn't processing user input.

Upon restarting, I couldn't edit the cutlist anymore either. After poking
around through the database, I noticed the editing field in that
program's recorded entry was set to 1 (makes since, since I killed
mythfrontend). Upon setting it back to 0, I could edit the cutlist again,
although all the cuts I had previously made were gone.

And all of this is from the MythTV CVS from this morning.
