Hey guys I've some good news for you!
I just installed the latest stable tvheadend version (4.0.7-23~g871f25e) and timeshifting seems to work (tested with Kodi 16 beta4, pvr.hts 2.2.10)!
I didn't have time for extended testing but seeking and skipping seems to work for my setup.
You should give it a try!

I'm not aware of any recent timeshift related code changes in Kodi, pvr.hts and tvheadend 4.0.x So, if it suddenly started to work for you with this version mix, it's a miracle, imo.
But there are some changes for tvheadend 4.1 done in the last week that might actually improve things.

This got me excited so I went ahead and installed build 4.1.1232, only to find it still freezes when skipping or rewinding.
Edit:: tested again and it seems to work - Will test further.

Release 4.0.8 has just been tagged in git, so that will ripple through as a stable build shortly. It includes these timeshift (and, of course, other) changes.

For a few months now, I have been running Kszaq's [ROM] Unofficial OpenELEC for MK808B+ version 5.0.3 with tvheadend server 3.9.2765, and it has been working well for me. I have been using the record function to get around the timeshifting problem. My problem, I have no idea how to update the tvheadend server running on this OpenELEC version, but would like to try it.

4.0.8? I thought the next stable release was set to be 4.2

4.2 is the next major stable - 4.0.8 is a bugfix to the existing 4.0 stable.

@iliac4: Following your link, this build still seems to contain the pre-bug fix 4.0.7.

I tested it again with the latest tvh yesterday, and it seems working better, but there are still heavy bugs in the code (for example skipping forward results in jumping close to the beginning of the show - but no freeze).

@Nachteule: can you post your /home/hts/.hts/tvheadend/timeshift/config file?
