84So mythbackend stopped running sometime after the Grab Preview at 18:52:51. However the mpeg file is only about 90s long, and only contains pre-programme broadcase content. The desired recorded programme is not there.
85
86Getting info on the recorded file duration using ProjectX:
87++> Mpg Video: PID 0x0258 / PesID 0xE0 / SubID 0x00 :
88-> Video: fr-ct-1p-cg-og-dg -> 2158-1-0-180-0-0
89-> Video length: 2158 frames @ 00:01:26.320
90-> GOP summary: min. 20, max. 24 fields; contains interlaced frames
91-> avg. nom. bitrate 4496183bps (min/max: 4000000/5117200)

93---> new File: /storage/recordings/1001_20081206180300.m2v
94
95
96Note length = 1 min 26 secs. Recording started at 18:03:03 plus 1m26 = 18:04:29. This agrees with the recording not containing any of the desired program, which began at 18:05:00 approx.
97The 'crash' was noticed at 18:55:01 (so not directly related to the recording stopping), but at 18:04:37 the EIT Active Scan (modified by my patch) went into Wait mode. At 18:04:38 the EIT scanner remarked that the Signal Monitor was not running.
98
99Looks like the EIT scan modification can stop the channel when a recording is in progress!
