This exact same thing happened to me...  It didn't happen out of the blue to
me though, I was formatting and reloading my main backend.  I backed up my
database, then loaded Ubuntu 6.10 on my box (had FC4) and imported the
database I had before.  Most things worked correctly, except for the
upcoming recordings.  I thought it was because the channel ID's were messed
up, but I could go to the program guide, say, 'Record this showing' and it
comes right back and says it is not going to record it.

I had tried using the 'Delete All' on everything in the mythtv-setup
utility, but it didn't work at first.  What I finally did that fixed it was
I went into the database and deleted everything from the 'settings' table
that had my old hostname, because in the process of reloading my myth box, I
changed the hostname.  Then I went back into mythtv-setup and did the
'Delete All' thing again and now it's showing up that I have shows going to
be recorded!  I also did have to re-do some of the programs because the
channel ID's are different, but that's easily done through MythWeb.
