A Abend here and there in zmdc

Folks,
This appears to be the only issue I see, and I have never been watching a camera to see it happen, as it happens only every once in a while. Here is
a short list of a tail of the zmdc log. The cam that appears to be producing most of them is a little el-cheapo TrendNET TV-ip110. The last one zmd-m1 is a DCS-910. I have poked around and tried to find more documentation on the error messages, but do not see much.

I am assuming that this happens when the application no longer receives video or data from the remote camera so it stops and restarts to recover??

This is Russ's LiveCD 1.23.3 installed on a 2.5Ghz pentium with 2G of memory, it is running 4 cams 2 DCS-910, 1 TrendNET TV-ip110 and a old DCS-1000.

I looked back to the previous startup of the machine which was yesterday at 17h19, and all of them were either the TrendNET (cam 2) or to a lesser extent the DCS-910 (cam 1) the old DCS-1000 and the other DCS-910 did not show any errors.
