That is what I originally thought. I knew that people had this working. Did you ever try running it at 800mhz? What are the other overclock settings, anything for gpu and over voltage? <div>I am currently running 800 with no overvoltage, but I don't know the rest since I am not home. I may try to go to 900 tonight to see what happens.</div>
<div>I know it takes a while to load the epg and everything, but all my issues happen after that. It is also very slow when changing channels and bringing up the guide.</div><div>Both systems are connected to a 10/100 netgear switch, but could the buffering be due to some unseen network issue?</div>

> I have a MythTV backend running 0.26-fixes with Unbuntu 12.04. All machines are connected via wired ethernet. Everything from the backend works fine (with exception of a little motion blur, but that is a separate issue), but I am having problems when using the XMBC mythTV plugin. I wasn't sure if there was something I could change in mythtv to alleviate the issues on the frontend.<br>
> I have 2 types of frontends, the first is a windows 8 machine that I just bought. Everything works well for a while, but the video will randomly buffer about every 8 minutes or so, and it takes around 20 seconds to buffer, which is very annoying in the middle of a show. I should also mention I am playing recordings that haven't been transcoded, so they are mpeg2 via a Ceton Infinitv. <br>
> The other frontend is a Raspberry Pi running openElec. Before I purchased it I was reading that it might be a little slow, but video playback should be fine, but I have not experienced this. When the video does play, the picture looks good, however it buffers constantly. When watching Live TV, it will pause for like 1 second, then start again. This happens like 15 times per minute, which is unwatchable. I thought this might have something to do with it being live TV, so I tried a recording, and it doesn't do exactly the same thing, but it's similar. It will do a full buffer, where it takes like 10 seconds, every couple of minutes. I tried overclocking the pi, but it didn't help. I also was SSHd in viewing top while a video was playing, and the CPU usage was only about 50%, so I don't think overclocking anymore will help. I can live with the menus and guide being slow, but not buffering in liveTV and recording playback. I am attempting to replace my cable boxes, so until I solve this I will still be renting.<br>

</div></div><p dir="ltr">Hi, I am using the xbian distro 1.0 alpha 4, codec license for mpeg2, cmyth xbmc pvr plugin.</p>
<p dir="ltr">I overclocked my pi to 900Mhz. Playback is smooth. I also know that while the plugin is initializing and loading recordings and channels everything is slow, so you need to just wait.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Other than that, the stream should be watching, even live TV with no buffering.</p>
