I am right there with you Gavin. I have been experiencing the same problems as you report. I had not noticed the correlation with the database writing but I hadn't looked for it either. I have noticed many crashes directly relating to scheduling recordings in Mythweb. Also, I recorded about 10 hours worth of tv yesterday and it worked fine then all of a sudden, it crashed on an evening recording. When I woke up this morning, I saw that it recorded two late night shows fine and was still running but then it crashed on a morning show today. I took the opportunity to upgrade to .18.1 and have restarted it. When looking at the logs, nothing seems amiss even when I turned up the logging verbosity to all. It just shows that recording is starting and then the log ends. I tried turning off the commercial flagging while it records and it still crashed. To give another data point, I am running off the atrpms install of mythtv.
Well, there must be some other library or something that is bad, because I've been running for months on latest CVS without a backend crash. When I first had my Myth setup going, it would crash at least once a day, but now it's pretty much rock solid. I started with KnoppMyth (0.17), and then upgraded it to 0.18 latest CVS (which I keep pretty current, within a few days of latest). I have not touched the OS at all, it just works.
