[mythtv-users] slow jump forward or back after 0.25 upgrade

Hi, following an upgrade to 0.25 (via a Mint 11 > 12 upgrade) last 
weekend, the main unresolved issue I have is that a skip/jump forward or 
back with the right or left arrow keys is painfully slow, each jump 
takes about 5 or 6 seconds to implement. It is pointless doing 6 in 
quick succession as I could previously as only 1 or 2 of them would 
occur.  This is true both on a separate FE or watching on the BE 
itself.  Most of the time the onscreen indicator displaying elapsed time 
etc does not display either, however it will randomly, and when it does, 
it will sometimes (not always) skip forward at a more acceptable pace 
similar to on 0.24.

The backend machine is otherwise running without issue as far as I know. 
While it's not a dedicated myth BE, there is nothing else of 
significance running on it when the FE has the above symptom, htop 
doesn't reveal any core running at high usage etc, it's a fairly recent 
quad core CPU, 8GB memory.

Can anyone suggest where I could focus my attention to understand what's 
going on and resolve?

Cheers,
Roger
