[mythtv-users] MythTV stops/doesn't start recording

Since a few day I have issues with MythTV sometimes either stopping a
recording after a short time, or not even starting a recording. The
recording appears under recordings, but either it cuts off after a few
minutes, because it's only a few MB large, or the file isn't found at
all.
The backend logs show nothing but a running recording. This is a log
example of an empty recording, i.e. one that doesn't even create a
recording file:

As you can see, nothing suspicious, it looks just like a successful
recording. Syslog is only happily logging cronjobs and network card
messages too.
The only changes I have done to the system during that time, is
keeping up-to-date with the Mythbuntu weekly 0.21 fixes.
Any help is appreciated. WAF has decreased a lot already.
