Hi Michael,

I found 0.6.2 after I sent the bug report.  I have only quickly tried it (left on overnight), but it look like the same issue.
I started it late last night, set to record for 120 minutes, and this morning the file was truncated at the same size.  Interestingly, the "record" button was still active, i.e. Me TV's status was that the recording had not stopped, but the file size was exactly the same.
Also, the icon in the taskbar had the red record symbol on.  I think it is more than 2GB / hour for SD isn't it?

dmesg showed nothing.
What logs etc do you need?

The UI seems to have lost some functionality from 0.5.30 or is that my
imagination?

Regards,

Robert.
