This is due to the 10-second idle timeout in mythdownloadmanager.cpp.

I'm curious how long this is taking to see if it makes sense to bump the
timeout up or if we're going to allow specifying a timeout per download
to allow Schedules Direct / TMS downloads to take longer.

If you compile from source, can you try something?

Edit libs/libmythbase/mythdownloadmanager.cpp and look around line 816 for this:

        (dlInfo->m_lastStat.secsTo(MythDate::current()) < 10)) ||

Change that 10 to a 15 and try again.  If that doesn't work, bump it up to 20
and try again, seeing how high you have to go to get it to work.  Also, how
many channels are we talking about?
