So i have googled this and looked into the mailing lists.  But  i have
not see much in the name of a  non-root user  using  mythfrontend  to
correct the  SUID root  problem?

any pointers would be great.

I also looked at this post  

Post:
Well this has been mentioned quite a bit but it's just as easy to go
ahead and tell you. In the frontend setup under TV playback, have you
checked off experimental A/V Sync, jitter reduction and extra audio
buffer? These are more or less a must have in MythTV. 


log print out from my  mythtv:

with realtime priority, improving video smoothness.
