[mythtv-users] Recordings disappearing on fc5

[Ask Bjørn Hansen]

Hi,

The last few days my mythbackend stopped recording.  Or rather, it  
records -- but no new files appears in the storage directory.   I was  
watching the storage directory while it was supposed to be recording  
and it said it was and there was no new .mpg file.  There was an  
nfslock file with a timestamp from around when it stopped working.

There is plenty free space and lots of programs to auto-expire.

It seemed to start working again after I restarted the mythbackend  
process, but only for a few hours of recording.

I didn't find anything in the log (indeed, there was nothing added in  
the log for the last ~19 hours).

I am running Fedora Core 5 (and have since I installed mythtv about a  
month ago -- I started out with the test releases of fc5).

Any ideas?
