How many DVB devices does your system have?
Are you sure there was one free when that timer should have been recorded?
What was the priority of that timer?
I tried to recreate the situation by disabling the decrypting for the
subscription channels. The channel the recording was supposed the take
place on is encrypted and I though that maybe the decrypting didn't work
for some reason and therefore the channel was unavailable. I just tested
this and got the following log entries:

May 18 02:04:03 x vdr: [32258] switching device 3 to channel 11
So vdr tried to change to the channel, but couldn't, and therefore the
recording could be started. Shouldn't this create some entries in the
log? Like "unable to start recording" or something?
After that I tried to manually wswitch to the channel and got these log
entries (these entries follow immediately the ones above):
May 18 02:06:52 x vdr: [32258] switching to channel 11

May 18 02:07:15 x vdr: [32400] setting audio track to 1 (0)
So now there is additional entries telling that the channel is not
available ("Kanava ei ole käytettävissä!"). But what is that strange
entry about VPS recording staring ("VPS-tallennus on alkamassa!")? I
didn't create a VPS timer...
