Comment:

 (In [8893]) Fixes #1227.

  * This fixes the problem of ateof being set when the reason we couldn't
 write data was because the ivtv video decoding buffer was full.
  * This also adds tracking of canwrite, so that if it is true for more
 than a second during regular playback, we reset playback. That should work
 around the driver bug where ivtv stops playback if it ever decodes the
 entire video decoding buffer, even if we immediately refill the buffer.

 After the first fix, the canwrite tracking was never triggered for me with
 20 second recordings. But you can trigger it if you stick some very short
 recordings into the livetv chain. This basically simulates the seeks L8r
 did to get out of the stuck playback with [8883].
