[mythtv-users] Can't get rid of "prebuffering pause" messages

Fedora 3, latest ATrpms, AverTV Studio card, Ensoniq PCI audio card

I keep getting these "prebuffering pause" messages when watching live TV 
that is keeping me from getting MythTV working. I thought it was because 
I was using the audio that came on the motherboard so I turned that off 
in the BIOS and put the Ensoniq PCI audio card in from another machine I 
had. Same problem.

The weird thing is that I can watch TV with audio with "tvtime" just fine.

Here are the messages I'm getting:

Any help would be appreciated. I've been trying to get MythTV working 
for a year now and keep running into problems.
