Agree's with Michael overall, but would hint that it's probably due to 
streaming Vs. NFS sharing.

Mythbackend can stream (via it's own protocol) the recording (and/or the 
live TV which is really just another recording now anyway) to the 
frontend, OR the frontend and backend can realise that the same file is 
available via NFS and the frontend can open it directly. On my setup 
(normal DVB), I get stutters like that when it streams but it works fine 
when I use NFS. Just make sure the setup is the same on both ends and 
that the location you have for recording Live TV streams is mounted 
under the same path on the frontend (it shouldn't really be an issue if 
your f/e and b/e are on the same machine obviously!).

Hope that helps.
