I have the same problem since updating a few days ago. HDTV playback is 
not smooth. Does not jump around much, just slows down briefly. I get 
Prebuffer Pauses in the log when it happens. I tried the 12/24 version 
of the libavcodec tree but that did not help. Using a P4 3G HT with 1Gig 
memory and NVidia.
