The problem happened again. It seems to come back after upgrading mythtv
packages & rebooting the server (frontend and backend are on the same
computer).

This is a big problem as we are losing a lot of programs I have set up
to record. Any ideas?

Title:
  After upgrade, recordings table is corrupted and new recordings are
  not working

Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV:
  New

Bug description:
  I just updated my mythbuntu and after the last update mythtv is unable
  to record scheduled recordings anymore.

  The symptom is that in the "Watch Recordings", there are 2 entries for
  each program that are grayed out.

  For example, I have Sesame Street set to record each day and only keep
  2 recordings maximum for my girls. Today, when this attempted to
  record the 10AM showing, I ended up with two entries in the
  mythfrondend. Both show "Sesame Street - Elmo and Zoe's Hat Contest"
  on Jan 9 10:00 AM. Both are grayed out with the X by the title.

  Logging into the mysql database, I ran this query:
  select * from recorded where subtitle like 'Elmo and Zoe%';

  Please see the attached "recordings.sql" file for the two results.

  In that table, the basename column value for the two records is
  1121_20130109100001.mpg and 1121_20130109100000.mpg

  Looking at my /var/lib/mythtv/recordings, I see what it should be:
  $ ls -lh /var/lib/mythtv/recordings/1121_20130109*
  -rw-r--r-- 1 mythtv mythtv 1.4G Jan  9 09:05 /var/lib/mythtv/recordings/1121_20130109083000.mpg
  -rw-rw-rw- 1 mythtv mythtv 8.1K Jan  9 10:00 /var/lib/mythtv/recordings/1121_20130109083000.mpg.-1.100x75.png
  -rw-rw-rw- 1 mythtv mythtv  71K Jan  9 09:05 /var/lib/mythtv/recordings/1121_20130109083000.mpg.png
  -rw-r--r-- 1 mythtv mythtv 1.4G Jan  9 09:35 /var/lib/mythtv/recordings/1121_20130109090000.mpg
  -rw-rw-rw- 1 mythtv mythtv  13K Jan  9 10:00 /var/lib/mythtv/recordings/1121_20130109090000.mpg.-1.100x75.png
  -rw-rw-rw- 1 mythtv mythtv 101K Jan  9 09:35 /var/lib/mythtv/recordings/1121_20130109090000.mpg.png

  So, for some reason, it seems, that the record in the database is
  using 2013-01-09 @10 but the file is being save with @9.

  I'm thinking that I may have to delete my whole database and re-
  configure mythtv.

  Since I can't record programs and view them using mythfrontend
  anymore, this is a major issue for me. I've never had a problem like
  this with mythtv in the 4 or so years I have been using it. Any help
  would be greatly appreciated.
