Often not the optimal answer.  Mysql temp tables should
never hit spinning rust (yes, I know it is not rust) if you
have the available memory.  There are many references
on mysql tuning you can look at (and all are at best
suggestions, as each situation is special/unique).
You can also run mysqltuner.pl to get other hints at
where performance may be a bottleneck (but be aware
of its limitations, and sometimes just wrong suggestions).

Do you have a lot of playback occurring simultaneously?
If so, access to recordedseek could impact other activity.
