Fire a System Message when the bitrate for a recording is too low or too many segments about sagetv

Does the HD-PVR work in VBR mode? if not, isn't the filesize always going to be as expected even with just a plain black screen?

Fuzzy,

I don't recall if it's VBR or CBR mode...but I know for sure that the file sizes are about 25% of normal when its all black screen (I measure by looking at about a dozen recordings I had done).

Sometimes there is a delay in tuning DVB-T radio in the UK which typically show some kind of static image that changes infrequently. Different behaviour on different extenders (mvp tunes much more quickly than say an HD300) maybe is related?

I've committed one relating to too many halts during a recording, it's here: 1d5f49c

And the other one for bitrate is done too: 980a772

For the bitrate one; I just made it based on a property setting for the capture device...was much easier to implement that way. Of course after I did this one...I realized that the bitrate one would likely cover both cases..I'll find out next time my HDVPRs get jacked up. :)
