I'm going to give this patch a try to see it fixes the "video data stream broken" error i was getting with recordings on a timer. I am not using a steerable dish, but it appears to be almost the same problem I was experiencing with NPTL enabled. Thanks!
The second problem is "solved" by the attached patch (as long as the dish doesn't take more than 5 minutes to reach the target position). The proper solution would probably be to check that the dish is positioned, but I don't know how to do it inside of recorder.c (since cFileWriter doesn't know which device is sending it data).
If you don't have a steerable dish I doubt this patch will solve your problem, since it only increases the timeout before receiving the first packet, and that's only necessary because I commented out the wait for a lock and no packets are coming since the dish is still moving (and now that I think of it, it's possible that, while the dish is moving, it'll lock on a different satellite, get some data, loses the lock and then gives the error again due to the original, short, timeout if the target satellite is still far away -- not good).
