I don't know if my problem was the same as yours but
0.17 was real choppy for me and turning off the option
about something to do with increased priority for
threads (I'm at work and I don't remember the exact
name of the option) in the playback setup fixed it for
me.  I believe that option requires mythfrontend to be
set suid root which it was but for some reason that
option was giving me problems.  I'm running a 2.6.10
kernel.
