I don't have a solution for you; but I seem to get these kinds of
messages in my logs too; but the recording seems to playback okay.

When I do get recordings that fail, I notice the recording filesize is
0 bytes.  It's pretty simple to write up a cron-script to detect this.
 But I don't know how to tell mythbackend that the recording has
failed and to attempt a re-record at a later time (via code).
