Re: "Pause" in CinemaSix 1.0 beta

Hmm.  Haven't tested the pausing http streams for a long time, but this is
definitely not the desired behavior.  The problem is that I'm not sure VLC
will throttle the http stream if I stop receiving data on the socket, but
I'll give it a try.  I'll test this on the weekend (I'm out of town again
this week).

As for the sad face, it comes up when CinemaSix detects that the
MPEGDecoder on the Xilleon is hosed (and the sad face informs you that
we're about to reboot).
