Hopefully there's a better way, but what I did to work around this was
to update the channel_timeout and signal_timeout fields in the
capturecard table in the mysql database by hand. Something like:
mysql> select * from capturecard;
...
mysql> update capturecard set channel_timeout=4000 where
cardid=<cardid from previous command listing>;
Changing signal timeout probably isn't necessary, but doesn't seem to hurt.
