[mythtv] LiveTV channel changes do not allow enough buffering time on local mount

[Louie Ilievski]

Hey guys.  I've been having a long standing issue with LiveTV since the 
re-work where it seems to change channels too quickly.  I get prebuffering 
pauses, and if I just pause it for a second and then unpause it again, things 
are fine.  Channel changes happen a good 2-3 seconds faster than the initial 
LiveTV startup (surely part of that is the overhead of starting it all).  I 
noticed, however, that using a remote frontend does not suffer this problem.  
It only occurs on the FE/BE combo.  I remember seeing some changes regarding 
different buffering policies with local or streamed content but don't know if 
it is relevant to this.

Is this an issue for any of you?  I'd be happy to look into this myself and 
hopefully work up a patch if someone can tell me where this logic takes 
place.

Thanks,
