I just tried with v29, and fast forward and skip work for me. There is 
only one small fix to the jump table and I'm a little dubious that it 
was the cause of your problem.

I'm not seeing this problem. (again with v29)

I'm seeing this problem also, I'll try to track it down. After looking 
over the hdtvrecorder code again, I think it may be a frontend problem.

This and other potential audio problems were fixed with Kenneth's patch, 
now in CVS.
