I have now made the suspend-to-shutdown timeout a configuration option
in the Setup/Replay menu.  Another thing I improved is that
cDevice::Clear() will only be invoked when viewing live stream.  Thus,
the Suspend key can pause a recording without dropping any frames.

The new patch is at

http://www.funet.fi/~msmakela/software/vdr/vdr-1.3.30-suspend-0.1.patch

as I figured out there will probably be follow-up versions.  If nothing
else, translations in i18n.c will be needed.  Also, it'd be nice to
blank the video overlay on dxr3 and possibly full-featured cards.

Could some FF card owner please test this patch?
