I use a PVR-250 and have only seen this problem once.  I think it's a 
code issue and not a database problem.  In my case I was watching a 
movie and (IIRC) left it paused for a long time.  When I resumed it 
would no longer skip commercials but instead gave the familiar "At End" 
message as if it was in the last segment before the end of the show.  
When I used "i" to see the position information it showed the current 
position and total length as the same running amount (Position 00:34:01 
/ 00:34:01, Position 00:34:02 / 00:34:02, etc.).  I cancelled the 
playback and restarted it and the problem never recurred.  I'm using 0.18
on a Debian back-end and Xebian front-end.
