[mythtv-users] What keeps causing "prebuffering pauses" ?!?!?!

[Robert Krig]

Ive read a few posts about this problem in the mailing list. But apparently no one has come up with a good explanation or a good solution, or at least I havent seen one.

In mythtv 0.12 everything was fine, I've upgraded to mythtv 0.13 and now Im getting prebuffering pauses. It doesnt happen all the time, it seems to be totally random, but as soon as it starts, I cant get it to stop. Sometimes if I switch to a different channel, it will be fine, but if I switch back then it starts over again. It doesnt always happen on the same channel either. My cpu is only used 40%, my harddisk has more than adequate performance. Im pretty sure its not my hardware, since A. Everything was fine in Myth 0.12 and B. Im not the only one experiencing this. 

Is this a bug or something?
