For swap, try ruunning configrpi256.sh to enable swap and increase swappiness.

cachemembuffers sounds like an old/deprecated setting. Try not to include settings in advancedsettings.xml unless you are sure you need them - trust the defaults, as old settings are likely to make performance worse than better.

pvr.hts is an update to TVHeadened frontend and Milhouse has also kindly provided updates to the TVHeadend backend service, you just need to read back through some posts in this thread

i.e. #503 for TVHeadend backend (download relevant additional available addon zip) and then #505 for pvr.hts (see updates mentioned in #505)

That's great, thanks for confirming at least one of the PVR addons is working!

For anyone experiencing Kodi restarts - crashlogs are the minimum required to investigate further.

A crashlog from a debug-enabled build is best as the standard crashlog doesn't always contain the required information, but these debug-enabled builds require a FAT partition of 380MB or so - if you can resize your FAT partition please do so. I've uploaded debug builds based on #0505 here: RPi / RPi2

The swapfile (default 128MB) is automatically created when you reboot. What is the output of the "free" command after you run configrpi256.sh and reboot?
