If you configure the wrong VBI device, or have another application reading
VBI data the blocking read for CC data gets stuck waiting for data, so it
is impossible to shutdown the recorder. I noticed this while working on
#843 and trying to switch back to a NupperVideoRecorder that I had been
using earlier.
The CC decoder is also hard coded to the default VBI format for Bt787
cards. It does not decode CC data on the cx88 cards in their default
configuration, nor does it work with bt787 cards if the VBI format has
been changed externally to MythTV.
