------------------------------------------+------------------------
 The calling python process runs at 100% while performing a task via the
 System class[[BR]]
 Script is based on transcode_stub.py[[BR]]
 [[BR]]
 Issue appears to be in the _PollingThread subclass of DequeBuffer in the
 run function[[BR]]
 The timeout in the poll call of the for loop is given as 0.1 (0.25-fixes
 update) but this poll function parameter is in milliseconds (python 2.7
 online documentation). Probably 0.1 seconds was meant, ie 100
 milliseconds[[BR]]
 Changing the line
 {{{
 for fd,event in poller.poll(0.1):
 }}}
 to
 {{{
 for fd,event in poller.poll(100.0):
 }}}
 fixes problem
