[mythtv] Mythmusic: How to increase buffer?

HI!

I'd like to increase the read buffer of Mythmusic, because I am using 
NFS over WLAN and WLAN sometimes does not deliver data promptly. I am 
playing OGG files.

I tried increasing globalBufferSize and globalBlockSize in constants.h, 
recompiled, copied the lib into the plugin directory of Myth and 
restarted Myth.

Then I monitored the traffic with IPTraf and saw, that whatever I had 
set, Mythmusic always seems to read chunks of 128 KB.

What am I doing wrong? Or does this buffer not apply to OGG files?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thomas
