Hi,

I run mythfrontened from the console to find out what the problem was: I was 
trying to watch a recorded movie and the only thing I was getting was a blank 
scrren. When I run mythfrontened from the console I got the following 
interesting message:

Broken packet: S 1660944384

What does this mean? Why do I get this message?
The other thing is that the movie I recorded was a half hour episode, and it 
is usually ~70GB, but now it is only ~30GB.

Xmm, On a second thought, the message tells me that the episode was not 
recorded, but why?

Thank you for your time
Vasilis
