This commit should actually have no visible effect at all at the moment. 
  It was really just a clean-up as the timeout is set in a variable but 
the error handling worked on a hard-coded value.  Both are currently 10 
seconds so the code as it stands should work exactly the same before and 
after.  The commit just makes both the timeout and the error handling 
use the same value so if it is changed, it affects both.

If the timeout had occurred, you should have seen the message 'Took more 
than 10 seconds to be allowed to read'.

Try starting the frontend with '-v file'.

That would seem to indicate that libdvdcss is not installed although if 
you're trying to play a disc created with MythArchive, that shouldn't be 
an issue.

Richard.
