[mythtv-users] Frontend Raspberry Pi setup issues

[DryHeat122 .]

I can't find any settings that throttle the wireless.  Anyway, I got it
connected to a wired connection, and that *significantly* improved the FE
startup speed.  Sadly I am still having the choppy playback problem.  So
maybe this h.264 content is just too much for the RPi3 to handle?
