 I've been using the latest and greatest myth code for some time and before
 ~10/2 everything was more or less working fine. After returning from
 holiday, I did an update again and after figuring out that a distclean/new
 configure was required to resolve various issues I got the software
 working again.

 However, when trying to playback recordings, I have noticed that
 skipping/jumping forward is working very randomly, but with a tendency to
 stop working all together.

 One of the errors I get sometimes is:

 NVP::AddAudioData():p1: Audio buffer overflow, audio data lost!

 but on other occasions there is nothing in the log and playback just
 stops.

 On other occassions I have also seen the playback stopping and returning
 to the menu.

 If I leave a program playing it will play normally.

 I also did a run with -v all and I can see the following log entries:

 ... repeats forever ...

 I then decided to go checkout the 0.19 code from svn, but the same
 behaviour is there too.

 I'm now thinking that I will go back to the code I had before, but if you
 have any suggestions then please advise.

 PS...there is nothing on the wiki that obviously spells out how to get a
 user id...
