[mythtv-users] streaming latency problem

Hi there,

sine I got no replies to my last posting, I am trying to formulate my 
problem again.

I am running mythbackend and mythfrontend on different machines. 
Mythbackend runs on a server using a PVR 350 for capturing. The client 
is a nice MSI barebone that sits next to my TV. Watching live TV works 
fine, however browsing and watching recordings gives me some headache.

Browsing from one recording to another takes up to one minute or even 
freezes the whole frontend. When I manage to start the playback it works 
fine however. The network is stable, the routing and the firewall 
settings are correct. It looks like some deadlock or timing problem.

Running the frontend on the server itself doesn't show this behaviour. 
Browsing and playing the recordings works smooth here.

Any ideas what might cause my problems?

Thanks for any tip you might give.

Ralf
