Mythfrontend prebuffer waits SVN8923M

On a 1Ghz P3 with nvidia 5200 the error logging for prebuffer waits overloads the system in an avalanche effect to the point where the machine has to be rebooted because it becomes so sluggish.

My solution was to define a variable wait_int;

wait_int = frame_interval * 4 / 1000;

changed the !prebuffering.wait.wait timeout to wait_int wait_int is then doubled on each timeout

Frontend now runs happily ... tested for several hours.

Marking as works for me unless a useful patch is provided, then this may be considered (if it even still applies to current SVN).
