[mythtv-users] MythTV not recording programs "Canceled recording (Recorder Failed)"

I recently upgraded to .20 of Mythtv.  I have a PVR-250 card.  I can
watch Live TV perfectly fine, but I can't record shows.  Mythweb gives
the backend log message as follows:

1   10891   scheduler   5   0   2006-10-24 12:30:03   drizzt
Canceled recording (Recorder Failed)   Buzz Lightyear of Star Command
"Haunted Moon": channel 1290 on cardid 2, sourceid 1

The mythbackend.log file shows this as it's tail messages:

Is there any more information that might be helpful?  Does anybody
know what is wrong with my system?

Thanks for any insight you might have.
