<p>Until recently I've been use the Android mythfrontend (<a

rel="nofollow" moz-do-not-send="true">mythfrontend-20200323-arm64-v31.0.apk</a>)
on my Nvidia Shield TV.</p>
<p>I was having a problem with watching in-progress recordings
when I used the down arrow to advance 10 minutes if that was the
first press of any direction key at a point 10-20 minutes into a
viewing session. When I did this it skipped more than 10
minutes.<br>
</p>
<p>This week I built the apk from source using master
(mythfrontend-20200602-arm64-v32-Pre-523-g907841a119.apk). The
timeline issue seems to be fixed. Even though the new FE says
v32, it works with my v31 backend also.</p>
<p>I still have issues with properly setting up 5.1 surround
sound, but that's not a big deal for me in OTA TV watching.</p>
<p>I still don't know if I have the optimum settings for MPEG2 HD
video, but what I have works fine and the picture is great most
of the time.</p>

<p>P.S. Android mythtv-leanfront's video is still better, but they
are close now.</p>

<p>I know this is a 2 month old post but I wanted to updated it.</p>
<p>After yesterday's finding of an issues related to my Shield TV
and using a USB Flash drive constantly inserted in one of the USB
port, here's the details.</p>
<p>This morning I was watching an in-progress recording about 30-40
minutes behind real time. Absolutely no video quality issues at
the 15 minute point as previously observed. Also at the 20 minute
point where the network cuts to the local station for local news,
I used the down arrow to skip 10 minutes to the 30 minute point
and it works as expected.</p>
<p>The version tested was <a

</a></p>
<p>The hardware was a 2017 Shield TV. <br>
</p>
<p>Not sure if either the Shield TV or mythfrontend could have been
using the external USB Flash key for any caching but, whatever I
did by eliminating the USB Flash key seems to have fixed this
problem.</p>
<p>This was not an intermittent problem. It happened everyday at
about the same timeline points.</p>
<p>So this seems to be my issue only which explains why no one could
duplicate the problem</p>
