Pi 2, Kodi does not do well with MPEG-TS files as
recorded by MythTV. Audio sync is poor and becomes
terrible if you use skip-forward or skip back. I
don't know if that is an issue with Kodi on other
platforms. There is a bug log in Kodi for that.<span><font color="#888888"><br>

<div>I will disagree I have code running on a pi 2 with
kodi and a mythbackend and have no such issues, works
fine and plays everything I throw at it. The menus
can be a little pokie and updating is slow but it
works fine as a dvr at least for me. :) <br>

Perhaps you are not recording MPEG-TS, or never use skip back or
skip forward (left arrow, right arrow). The author of the mythtv
plugin (janbar) acknowledges the bug and has pointed it out as a
Kodi bug.<br>
<br>
See bug logs below:<br>

<br>
There is also a test file attached which demonstrates the problem.<br>

OK, now I understand! It is a commercial flagging issue within Kodi.<br>
<br>
I don't have commercial flagging running on my mythtv-backend, so
would never see the issue. I did try commercial flagging several
years ago, but could never get it to work reliably in the UK. I gave
up and just set left and right arrow to skip 30 seconds. <br></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>On right-arrow / left-arrow skips - those work quite well for me in Kodi. They are not as lightning fast as they are in the MythTV frontend. But, that was after a bit of tweaking.. by default Kodi waits 750ms after arrows are pressed to do its skip multiplier abilities. I disabled that so the skips are much quicker. Audio sync works fine after the skips for me.</div><div><br></div><div>In my environment, I have MPEG2-TS from HDHomeRun Prime.</div><div><br></div><div>I actually moved to Kodi after running into a bunch of issues on my Atom/Ion MythTV frontend.
