[mythtv-users] Recordings going WAY over

I've been having a problem lately with recordings that are supposed  
to take a half hour recording up to an hour and recordings that are  
supposed to be an hour, recording an hour and a half or even two  
hours. Sometimes the program metadata will have something like 6:00  
am - 6:01 am and sometimes it will read correctly like 12:30 pm -  
1:00 pm, but be an hour long.

The Watch Recordings screen doesn't show it as recording, mythwelcome  
says mythtv is busy recording, but shows all tuners idle. My VFD  
panel shows the program is still recording way after it should have  
stopped.

Fortunately, this hasn't caused any real problems since it seems to  
correct itself when the tuner is needed for the next program, but it  
means I'm recording way more stuff that I should be. Anyone else  
seeing this?
