[mythtv] Question about TVRec and recorder development

I am writing a new recorder class to record from an r5000hd (an AV/C
firewire device).
I have the recorder functioning nicely for scheduled recordings.
However, it is not working correctly for LiveTV viewing. The log
shows:
1. TVRec says "Changing from None to WatchingLiveTV"
2. Recorder object is contructed
3. StartRecording is called
4. There is a delay (3-5 seconds) before the first TS packets arrive
to ProcessTSPacket
5. TVRec says "Changing from WatchingLiveTV to None"
6. StartRecording is exited
It looks like TVRec is setting the recorder's "_request_recording"
variable to false, before the Recorder has had a chance to deliver
any TS packets.
Is this happening because of a timeout? If so, where is the timeout
value (so I can try extending it)?
If not, can anyone tell me what is happening? I am assuming that if a
Recorder functions properly for scheduled recordings, it should also
work for LiveTV.
Thanks in advance for any help or advice.
Mike
