I'm using mythTV 0.20 frontend on both Ubuntu Edgy/Feisty with my
backend running on Edgy.  I'm able to record and do everything else
fine, however when I take a recording and try and create a DVD iso I get
this in the logs straight away and it stops.

I'm guessing its because the filename = nothing, but any ideas how to
fix this problem?


Thanks for the help,

Dave
