What the log says is that the recording never starts.  Mythbackend
tells the tuner to start sending it data to record, but that data
never starts arriving.

It might give a bit more information if you try a manual recording
starting say 10 minutes before and ending 10 minutes after ABC News.
And I would suggest telling mythbackend to log a bit more.  I would
recommend changing the logging settings to:

  -v record --loglevel debug

You can do that by editing the mythbackend command line in
/etc/init/mythbackend.conf (for Mythbuntu), or you can use mythutil to
change the settings on the fly before your test recording starts:

  mythutil -v record --loglevel debug
