I was just graphing these intervals yesterday to see if there was a pattern
that wasn't obvious during viewing. It was just a few minutes worth of
video, but I didn't see one. Rather than LiveTV, these were grepped from a
high-bitrate h264 mkv playback log. The common intervals I found were: 6,
11, and 16 with 103, 107, 113 and 2412 ms. So, yes, these 5ms (4-6ms with
error) differences look interesting. However, the intervals come out all
mixed up, so I don't know what to make of that.
