There are 3 configurable settings for OSD timeouts: OSDProgramInfoTimeout,
 OSDGeneralTimeout and OSDNotifyTimeout.  However, many OSD activators do
 not use these timeout values.
 {{{
 TV::HandleStateChange() - settings OSD, 3 second timeout
 TV::DoInfo() - program_info / status OSD, proginfo timeout
 TV::DoQueueTranscode() - settings OSD, 3 second timeout
 TV::UpdateOSDTextEntry() - channel_number OSD, 2 second timeout
 TV::PreviousChannel() - channel_number OSD, 1 second timeout
 TV::UpdateOSD() - program_info / channel_number OSD, proginfo timeout
 TV::UpdateOSDInput() - settings OSD, 3 second timeout
 TV::UpdateOSDSignal() - program_info / channel_number OSD, proginfo
 timeout
 TV::ToggleMute() - settings OSD, 5 second timeout
 TV::ToggleSleepTimer() - settings OSD, 3 second timeout
 TV::ToggleLetterbox() - settings OSD, 3 second timeout
 TV::ToggleRecord() - settings OSD, 3 second timeout (twice)
 TV::ChangeAudioTrack - settings OSD, 3 second timeout
 TV::SetAudioTrack - settings OSD, 3 second timeout
 TV::ChangeSubtitleTrack - settings OSD, 3 second timeout
 TV::SetSubtitleTrack - settings OSD, 3 second timeout
 TV::ToggleSleepTimer(string) - settings OSD, 3 second timeout
 TV::DoSkipCommercials() - status OSD, 6 second timeout
 TV::UpdateOSDSeekMessage() - status OSD, passsed second timeout (always
 general)
 TV::ChangeBrightness() - status OSD, 5 second timeout (twice)
 TV::ChangeContrast() - status OSD, 5 second timeout (twice)
 TV::ChangeColour() - status OSD, 5 second timeout (twice)
 TV::ChangeHue() - status OSD, 5 second timeout (twice)
 TV::ChangeVolume() - status OSD, 5 second timeout
 TV::ChangeTimeStretch() - status OSD, 10 second timeout
 TV::ChangeAudioSync() - status OSD, 10 second timeout
 TV::DoTogglePictureAttribute - status OSD, 5 second timeout
 TV::DoToggleRecPictureAttribute - status OSD, 5 second timeout
 TV::ToggleAutoExpire() - status OSD, 1 second timeout (shouldn't this use
 settings?)
 TV::SetAutoCommercialSkip() - status OSD, 1 second timeout (shouldn't this
 use settings?)
 TV::SetManualZoom() - status OSD, 1 second timeout (shouldn't this use
 settings?)
 UDPNotify::incomingData() - notify OSD, notify timeout
 NuppelVideoPlayer:: - all over the place.  Do we still use this?
 }}}
 I think there are actually 3 timeouts needed in the TV class:[[br]]
 '''ProgramInfo''' - self-explanitory[[br]]
 '''Status''' - displaying something non-interactive such as "Recording" or
 "Position Saved".  Mainly things that use the "settings" OSD.[[br]]
 '''Interactive''' - changing picture adustments, time-scale, etc.
 Anything that is presenting information that may be changed by the user
 multiple times before going away.

 At the very least, the hard coded timeout should be changed to use the
 user settings.
