I've been having a similar problem.
 
A couple of days ago I was watching one channel and at the time of a scheduled recording the FE changed the channel over to the one that was to be recorded. I changed source on the FE to carry on watching the program I was originally watching.
The following day when I wanted to watch the program that I had recorded that program did not appear in the list of recorded programs.
On checking 'upcoming recordings' on mythweb I saw that the program that should have been recorded was displaying 'currently recording' and all tuners were showing as 'not recording'.
 
Unfortunately, I don't have a solution to the problem.
