#876 closed defect (fixed)
deadlock when request for remote end while showing "Coundnt connect" popup

Description
on an xbox (and perhaps other cases) a qt event is fired every 5 secs (default) to ask the backend if it is currently recording. If the backend has gone away, and a further request for backend comms occurs, deadlock ensues as no further qt events can get through. the attached patch fixes this. A further enhancement would be to clear the popup if connection is restored but Im not sure of the correct way of doing this only for this case. it may need to be made more general but its impact needs to be analysed for all other cases.

2nd patch is a better fix. There are 2 places the "could not connect to backend" popup gets called from. fully tested this time.
