No Firewall,
after several attempts and days,  I was able to get the database loaded.

Also, the 10 seconds of live video appears to have been caused by a
corrupted database. On dropping it and reinitializing the problem
appears to have gone away.  Alas, only to return, I had this problem
several times already.  Now that I am relatively certain where the
problem lie, next time issue arises, I plan to evaluate the data
structures and determine what entries are causing the fault.
