That's what I thought.  Problem is it isn't a script.  It is the internal
firewire channel changer and it does return.  It did its job.  The set
top box is the one that isn't done doing what it was commanded yet.
It needs a delay somehow.  Perhaps just putting sleep(5) at the end of
the firewire channel changing function will do the job.
