I found that the "BBC HD" patches improved all UK HD channels.

But in general terms for my setup 0.24 is much more likely to hiccup when recording HD, I have disabled backend logging '"-v none" which reduces the effects of the deluge of recorder h264 errors.

There were some recorder threading related patches submitted in the last day or so, I'm working away this week so will try them when I return and see if they help in my case.
