ok, two things i noticed from your message:
1. in order to get debug info from the scripts, you need to set debug in xbmc to an appropriate level and also set debug in the script code itself. debug in the script is a bitmask... so debug=0 actually turns all messages off. i suspect debug=0 was the value you specified in the xboxmediacenter.xml file. also, if you use xbmc as your dash, there is an initial log file that is generated on c: and then the continuation of the log file in the xbmc home directory (e.g. e:\apps\xbmc).
2. the backend message you displayed talks about a .nuv.png file. this is not a video file but rather a screenshot from the program. if you go into the recorded show details screen, it instructs the backend to create a screenshot, downloads it from myth, and then displays it. do you see a screenshot before you select "play"?
the only time i've seen something like this is when i had a few zero size video files that myth kept in the database and on disk. this caused problems when trying to generate the screenshots and obviously the shows couldn't be watched. my backend server's tuner card driver failed to initialize completely and so all shows were 0 byte files. the fix at that time was to reboot the box and make sure the driver initialized properly. then delete all the bad shows from the database.
