I just set up another motion detector using the Elk that, once triggered, turns on a couple of TV's to display the security cams. 
I use the pause() command in a several of the action commands to wait while the driver switches to analog TV, etc.  I also use it to wait while the cams are displayed before going back to whatever the TV was doing before.
What I noticed was, during the long pause - ie 800,000 millisecs while the video stream is being output to the TV, that it only goes for about 190,000 millisecs.  Is there a better way to do this?  
Essentially I want the TV to display the cams for about 10 minutes, then go back to what they were doing, either off, or the programming they were on.    It seems like the millisecs entered in the command is not the real time it pauses.
