[mythtv-users] Video frame buffering failed too many times [0.26-fixes]

[Andréas Kühne]

I checked now again.

I tried to set the max value (as you indicated below), but after setting
the value and then trying to read the value again, it doesn't work. The
default value is reset.

I am also using Mythbuntu (version 12.04, myth 0.26)
