[mythtv] DCT 6200 Firewire problems

Attached more logs of attempting to do a recording.  I've tried 
resettign the bus, using ptp, updating my code with the patch below, 
doing a full rebuild, and switching to broadcast, with a channel 
changing script making sure things were in sync.

What's wrong here?  This is a new STB, and I've gotten at least one good 
recording off of it . . .
