[mythtv-users] Long delays with remote occasionally

So I have been seeing a long pause like what was discussed in this thread..
I just assumed it had something to do with HD playback taking more
processor.  Now that I see this, would anyone mind letting me know exactly
what version this patch file might work for?

My backend is currently on a fedora 9 machine, and is at the following
version.


MythTV Version   : 19114M
MythTV Branch    : branches/release-0-21-fixes
Library API      : 0.21.20080304-1
Network Protocol : 40
Options compiled in:
 linux release using_oss using_alsa using_arts using_jack using_backend
using_dbox2 using_dvb using_firewire using_frontend using_hdhomerun
using_iptv using_ivtv using_joystick_menu using_libfftw3 using_lirc
using_opengl_vsync using_opengl_video using_v4l using_x11 using_xrandr
using_xv using_xvmc using_xvmcw using_xvmc_vld using_glx_proc_addr_arb
using_bindings_perl using_bindings_python using_opengl using_ffmpeg_threads
using_libavc_5_3 using_live


I know that ATrpms shows an update available beyond what I am running now.
I just don't usually update if everything is working fine.  Any chance this
has been fixed and I just haven't updated?

I am running: mythtv.i386 0.21-198.fc9 (this is what provided the above
version info)
availble to install: mythtv-0.21-203.fc9.i386.rpm

If by chance the mentiond binary is compatible with my versoin (or the one I
could upgrade to) I would be interested in giving it a shot.  I know my
better half would apreciate the remote working better again :)
