I played with the FireTV 4K settings for mythfrontend until my fingers bled
and I was never able to get acceptable playback.  Particularly compared to
MythTV Leanfront for FIreTV. Leanfront is much improved with commercial
skip being one of the latest changes.  It works great on my recorded TV and
videos on my backend.
