Comment (by pbennett):
Changing float secs_min to 1.5 is not acceptable. It uses a default
bitrate of 8000 to calculate the amount of buffering to do. It calculates
a reasonable approximation to 1.5 seconds on high bitrate HD, but on low
bitrate channels such as audio only, it results in buffering and waiting
for 15 - 30 seconds, and the frontend times out before it get started.
My proposed patch forces a brief pause when the stutter condition is
detected. There will be one or two brief pauses during the first 30
seconds of Live TV, which I hope is better than continuous stuttering. See
attached patch. Please try this out and give feedback on whether it is
acceptable and whether it fixes the problem.
