[mythtv-users] Prebuffering Pause and memory

Hi!

Prebuffering pauses seem to be a fairly large problem.  I've seen my
fair share of them and am slowly getting annoyed with it.  My question
is how to fix it.

I'm *thinking* my problem is not enough memory.  I have an AMD 64
2.2ghz dual core processor with 1 gig of ram.  When I run the 'free -o
-m" command while watching live tv, my free memory hovers around 50
meg.  However, at the same time, it doesn't use any swap.  My question
is...if I add more memory to the machine, will it fix the prebuffer
pauses?


Thanks!
Mike
