Well, upgrading to Ubuntu 12.10 did not solve the problem for me
As with others, everything was working fine on Ubuntu 11.04 and XBMC 10, after upgrading to ubuntu 11.10 the problem started, further upgrade to 12.04 and same problem.
After reading this thread went and upgraded to 12.10, although had to manually edit source.list and do a "apt-get dist-upgrade" because "do-release-upgrade -d" was doing nothing. Update went ok and system rebooted fine, I did not have to edit grub settings like some people did.
But, the problem is still the same.
On my case the issue only occurs when playing tvcatchup, sometimes sounds plays for 5 seconds with no video then all freezes, sometimes video plays for 20 seconds then all freezes.

One difference, I'm using xorg-edges ppa.
Will continue to troubleshoot later.
