Comment (by Jiri Fojtasek <jiri.fojtasek@…>):

 This is v2 of the patch. It fixing issues from previous version:
 - Internalreadpos in ringbuffer not always follow real position in the
 file, so it was replaced by seek() to always get correct position.

 Improvements:
 - Leave portion of the file in pagecache because livetv playback may need
 it very soon. This will reduce disk io during livetv playback and decrease
 time required to open next file when player switching/jumping to next
 program. The size of may_need has been choosed as 5 seconds of 35mbit
 playback.

 Jiri
