<div>I sort of have it working. The playback
and audio are OK, but it stutters if I try
to use time stretch. Since that is a major
feature for me when watching football or
baseball games, I have not yet replaced my
Zotac ION front end with the Pi3 yet. I do
have the decoder license in place, but
nothing I have tried has allowed time
stretch to work correctly. The Wiki page for
using a Pi as a frontend says that time
stretch can work up to about 2x, but it has
never worked right for me.</div>

<div>Thanks. I usually don't use the time stretch
feature, so that wouldn't be a deal breaker for me. </div>

<div style="font-family:monospace,monospace"
class="gmail_default">Kodi is a great media player for sure,
but MythTV's comm skipping is the deal breaker for me. 1
button skip is something I refuse to give up, and in Kodi,
it is either auto-skip on or off. If MythTV's commflagging
is off (and it often is), Kodi will just jump to the end and
quit playback with no way to correct it before it quits to
the menu. I have discussed with the MythTV Plugin coder and
he was trying to get Kodi devs to implement the "notify"
feature like MythTV has, but it gained no traction, so I do
not think it will land.</div>

I dropped Mythfrontend a while back, and just use Kodi's step
forward and back buttons to skip commercials. It's the same way I
used Mythfrontend, since I found the commercial detection to be a
bit flakey.<br>
