    1315When a problem occurs, the log file is supposed to be the place where you turn to diagnose it. What is shown here? That the recording started at 07:00:06 and that it stopped at 07:03:05 (it was supposed to run until 09:00:00)? That the housekeeping task couldn't find the recording file? What else? Did the tuner not get set up? Did it fail to get a lock? Do the major/minor channel numbers not match what's in the CVCT? Was there no space available? Were the file permissions wrong? Don't be shy. The log file already has plenty of stuff in it. Adding a little more, useful information isn't going to upset anybody. When a requested operation fails for any reason, the log file needs to contain copious information about what was going on and what went wrong.
