Comment (by stichnot):

 Replying to [comment:19 jonathan.oexner@…]:
 > So, is the underlying bug that the MythTV installer created InnoDB
 tables instead of MyISAM?

 > Or is it that writing out position data to the database in a blocking
 thread every 10 seconds is a bad idea?

 If the latter were true, recordings would be damaged and it wouldn't
 matter whether you play an in-progress recording or a fully recorded
 recording.

 Most likely, the underlying problem is that the decoder thread on the
 frontend is blocking on a slow query to the backend.  The decoder and UI
 threads should both not be blocking on DB or backend queries.
