[mythtv-users] How to convince mythtv that firewire has failed?

I've got my mythbackend to record from a firewire source for one of the inputs.  This works well most of the time, until I hit a show that's 5C, or the box simply loses its mind.

When it goes nuts, I get lots of logs similar to the following:

This goes on for the entire duration of the show.  This annoys me.

My question:  How do I convince the backend to just give up after a minute or two and fail the recording?  When this happens in a live-tv situation, it gives up after a few seconds and claims it can't tune, but this doesn't happen when it's a scheduled recording.

Thanks,
Jason
