[mythtv-users] Saved position no longer working

Myth frontend and backend running rev 9710 on .19-fixes branch.

Strange thing started happening after I installed a second frontend - my
saved positions for recorded programs are no longer working.

On either frontend, I can save position and it says "Position saved" up in
the top left, but when I start the playback again, even when going
"Playback from... saved position" it starts at the beginning of the
recording.

On both frontends I have "Save Position and Exit" in the playback options.
 On the main frontend, I have clear saved position on playback checked,
not so on the new frontend. (I watch most stuff from the main frontend).

I ran mythfrontend -v database, but saw no obvious errors.  The following
is when I 1) start a program, 2) clear the saved postion, 3) save the
position, and 4) exit,  which saves the position again.

When I look at the bookmark value for this program I get:

mysql> SELECT bookmark FROM recorded WHERE chanid = '1062' AND starttime =
'2006-06-12T15:00:00' ;
+----------+
| bookmark |
+----------+
|      127 |
+----------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

Is this normal?

One thing I know I did in error was download, compile, install and run
mythfrontend on revision 9710 of the main code branch (as opposed to
.19-fixes).  I then uninstalled, and rebuilt from rev 9710 .19-fixes. 
Would this have corrupted tables at all?  Only thing I can think of is
that it messed up the DB schema somehow.. or I'm missing something
entirely easy to fix.

Thanks for any help,
Stuart
