MythTV suddenly stopped supporting the edit function. When I press E

than November 5) can be edited with E keys.

I have not changed anything in Myth config within last few months. Two
things happened just before editing stopped working for new recordings:
- the disk run out of space and I had to kill X
Window(Ctrl-Alt-backspace), delete files and launch X again.

- a day later, my 2-year old son punched the reset button and caused
hard reboot, with no visible consequences. Root filesystes is journal
ReiserFS, myth storage filesystem is journal XFS.

Everything except Edit seems to work fine.

How should I approach this problem?


I had something similar, and one of the database tables had become corrupted. I don't remember the details, but here's some notes I jotted down. Please note the bit at the end about backing it up first if you can.

Can check the database with

mysqlcheck -u mythtv -pmythtv mythconverg

can also repair it with

mysqlcheck -r -u mythtv -pmythtv mythconverg

but beware, this is where I got an error.  Could be a coincidence as the whole 
filesystem had problems and needed to be repaired at the same time.

Should have dumped the data first with

mysqldump -u mythtv -pmythtv mythconverg -c > mythtv_backup.sql
