This indicates that it can't write data (either fast enough or at all) to the 
disk.  The fact that the video never opens indicates that it's not able to 
write at all to the disk.  Nothing's changed in that part of the code at all, 
so perhaps you want to make sure that DMA mode is turned on on the drive.  If 
that's not it, recompile it for debugging and run it in gdb, then ctl-c it 
once it's started recording, then look for a thread stopped up in 
ThreadedFileWriter.
