I haven't changed or add anything.  This system records all the local news feeds so generates about 25 hours of recorded material a day.  There are 3 hdhomeruns as the tuners.  I can sit at the system's frontend and watch live tv so I assume the homeruns are working, but if I set a record, nothing.  The system does not create any mpg files in /storage/recordings for that failed record.  Yet others will work.  I've enclosed a short part of the backend log on a 'B' size recording.

This is almost always due to problems with the capture device not 
providing any data to Myth.

Check your system logs/dmesg output to see if you see any errors in there.
