Comment(by alan@…):

 Thanks, for suggesting this.  I tried this by adding nohz=off to my boot
 options and it made things worse.  As well as the video stuttering, audio
 also started stuttered and crackled.

 Like the OP, I believe the problem is related to how MythTV accesses the
 DVD drive.  ISOs play perfectly across NFS, xine works great, just MythTV
 has problems with actual DVDs...  The problem appears to be worse with
 higher quality DVDs, which I suspect use less compression, so more
 throughput would be needed.  Like the OP, changing DVD access speed makes
 no difference on my machine - and that seems to be the problem.

 Something was introduced between .20 and .21, because the problem really
 only reared its head on my system once I upgraded to .21.
