That happens sometimes for me too with my Nvidia 220 card in a full
scale PC - it looks like the amount of buffering between the recording
and the playback may be slightly too little for the H.264 DVB-T signal
we have here in New Zealand.  A very short pause fixes the problem for
me.

>2) using pm-utils 'pm-suspend' command to suspend-to-ram, on resume i am getting a black screen and no way to revive it without a restart. SSH is still fully responsive

I am sure there are many PCs that will have problems like that.  I
would guess that the screen would come back again if you did a
"restart lightdm" (Mythbuntu 14.04) or the equivalent on your system
which restarts X and the display manager, from your ssh login.  If so,
then there may well be some X config settings that can help, or you
may need a script that gets run on suspend to shut down certain
things.
