How about going without error dialogs at all? There can be an extra column in the Downloads tab, which would show one of two icons: (1) ICON_DOWNLOADING for active downloads, like in episode lists, and (2) a stop sign or something for downloads with errors (and maybe a short description of the error would be show where the progress bar is). The failed downloads would stay there, to be either restarted or cancelled manually.
