[mythtv-users] Problem with ffwd/rwd in 0.17 recordings

[Martijn Coenen]

Strange I am having similar problems (the endtime is incorrect and 
fluctuates when ffwd/rewinding). Altough my database was marked as corrupt, 
repairing it does not solve the problem. Has anyone gained any new insights 
on this issue?
