Adaptive Streaming - Breaks Up Episode

So I'm trying to use this with a site that has ads at the content. My browser has been blocked - the content is removed during the recording of the stream. But periodically the main content is taking too long for the Adaptive Streaming to start again and as a result the episode is broken into separate files. Is there any way to adjust the period before Adaptive Streaming 'gives up' on recording the current content and determines the 'newly discovered' content is something new?
