cmyth buffering settings - NoHesitation - 2014-03-18

Is there a way to set how much LiveTV buffers before starting playback? I know that XBMC has an option for it in advancedsettings, but I am not sure it will work for cmyth (if it does, please correct me)

The reason for doing this is:

I have a box set up to connect via OpenVPN to my home network, so I can watch my TV/Movies/Etc anywhere I have an internet connection. The machine works flawlessly, except that in the case of a less than optimal internet connection, playback occasionally pauses while buffering happens. I would love to be able to manually set it to buffer like 5 minutes ahead, or 50MB ahead, or whatever. Is this possible?

Thanks! That was exactly what I was looking for. I must have been searching for the wrong terms.
