Was that the wrong changset? It seems unrelated, since I do not experience a

Let's make sure I was responding to proper thread . . Oh -- maybe not . .
I'm getting lots of these:
2007-06-26 21:24:54.094 NVP: prebuffering pause

But with no other relevant errors:

I'll start adding more debug to see what's going on.
