The exact same file played via NFS from the BE plays perfectly fine
with mplayer so I know all of the hardware and interconnects are up to
snuff -- none of which have changed pre/post upgrade, and this content
played just fine with Trusty and 0.27-fixes.
So given that I know the pipeline from the BE to the FE all the way out
to the display are all working fine, as evidenced by mplayer playing
the exact same content, where do I start looking in MythTV for the
bottleneck?
Cheers,

You did not say what your symptom is. Is it jerky video or no video
or something else?<br>
<br>
Waiting for video buffers indicates a slowdown in decoding the
video. Is it mpeg2, x264 or something else?<br>
<br>
I suggest go to the playback profile, edit and try changing the
Decoder to Standard. You can leave the renderer as vdpau. <br>
