</div>I used analog audio and got some loud audio pops when<br>
starting/stopping/skipping playback. You using analog or digital?<br></blockquote></div><div><br>I am using HDMI, so digital.

</div></div><br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I decided to pull my RPi back out this weekend and give this a try again on a rarely used TV. I was able to get everything working using the myth:// and the standard xbmc browser. With the mpeg2 license I can play both my OTA and HDPVR recordings. I do get some buffering lag. It doesn't seem like the network can keep up. I know there are USB NIC issues and I have an older board so maybe I am one. Haven't researched it all yet. Besides that HDMI audio worked, WM Remote worked. Did you guys get yours to work w/o lag? Did you use myth:// or NFS?</div>
