Oh how quickly I forget!

I had a thread titled "HD-PVR dropped frames / MythTV AV glitches" from
last year, where the AV sync would need to be corrected around every 10
minutes or so.   I had chalked it up to being a glitchy Comcast 6200
cable box, but it could very well have been a combination of the cable
box in conjunction with the HD-PVR.

Though having switched to Verizon FIOS, It's been chugging along without
a hiccup.
