Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mythtv

Mythtv does not update the length of a recording when it is playing that
recording. This causes problems when watching a recording that is still
being recorded, eg. timeshifted TV viewing.

If the recording was fx. 10 minutes long when playback started, mythtv-
frontend will stop playback after having played these 10 minutes, and
report that the recording was interrupted, and ask user to delete or
keep it. It is a false error message as in fact the recording has
continued without problem on the backend and is now 20 minutes long.

Timeshifted playback is effectively broken since it is constantly
interrupted by this false error.

Using mythtv-backend on a remote machine running Mythbuntu-10.04.

This is a regression, worked fine in 9.04's mythtv frontend.
