I just re-did my capture cards after I upgraded to 0.24 and I noticed 
that none of my HD-PVR recordings were happening.  So I just setup a 
test recording, and captured the following in my myth-backend log:

I can "cat" my HD-PVR successfully, so I know it works OK.  And I use 
firewire to change channels which has always worked (unless something 
changed there that I'm not sure of yet).

Any ideas on what could be happening?

Thanks
Harry
