Has anyone concidered the possibility that that the problem may be with the unlying OS and not mythtv?<br></blockquote></div><br>I think that's possible, but I don't know where to begin in terms of narrowing things down. Your list of upgraded packages is pretty big, but I should think that only a handful are likely candidates.<br>
<br>The suggested patch mentioned earlier to improve buffer usage sounds like it was more aimed at fixing an issue with particular MKV files, but please someone correct me if I've misunderstood. The pauses I was getting have definitely gone now that I have freed up enough disk space to prevent auto-expire from needing to run all the time. If the buffering patch would helped in my case, then it is only masking the underlying issue, which is that something in the backend is starving the frontend of data.<br>
