Have you seen the seek problem also in previous versions? There were a couple of commits in xbmc recently that claim to have fixed some problems in seeking pvr streams.
Can you try to use tomorrow's nightly build?

I loaded the nightly build 20130109 and the issue persists. I realize that you don't think this is addon related, but the xbmc player (omxplayer in raspbmc) seek works correctly when the mythtv recordings directory is mounted via nfs to the pi. I read somewhere (maybe in this forum) that some conversion needs done between time and frame seeking in the addon. Could that be contributory? I've noticed that the skip commercial functionality of mythtv also doesn't work correctly on these recordings. It usually skips too far. These recordings were encoded by a Hauppauge 1600 from an analog cable feed. The times listed in mythtv for the longer recordings also appear incorrect with 1 hour recordings showing around 52 minutes. Perhaps if you or janbar could take a look at the log http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?20idnuhryfyroee there might be some hints. Thank you for your attention to this and your and janbar's work on the addon.

We have still not released our changes (from the development repo into the official one). That's why you still see the issues in all platforms.
It only works if you build directly from the dev repository...

Ok, that makes sense. Since the version number had changed to 1.6.7, I assumed that I was getting the latest addon build.

I'd be happy to test the new version on Raspberry Pi if you can point me to instructions for building it for that platform, or a pre-built image.

Here's how you can build a custom openelec version that compiles the addon from our development sources.
The openelec build system wants to download all source packages from a web server, that's why it's a bit tricky to build.
Also be aware that the first build takes several hours since it build the complete distro.

Code:

git clone git://github.com/OpenELEC/OpenELEC.tv.git
cd OpenELEC.tv

Modify the script 'tools/mkpkg/mkpkg_xbmc-pvr-addons' and
replace the url with git://github.com/fetzerch/xbmc-pvr-addons.git
Then run this script. It will create a source tarball that you have to
upload to a (local) http server.

Edit packages/mediacenter/xbmc-pvr-addons/meta:
Edit the PKG_VERSION, PKG_SITE and PKG_URL with the data of the
uploaded source tarball.

Code:

PROJECT=RPi ARCH=arm make release

Hope this helps!

Congratulations to the MythTV Add-on team on the release of Frodo. Some excellent effort.
It is great to have a small PC in the lounge connected to my mythtv and to be able to watch my recordings easily.

Every now and then I think, maybe I should buy a Humax or Freeview+ box or something, but then XBMC and MythTV show how much better life can be.

Congratulations again.

Here here! I've been a long devote myth-frontend user with Plex for movies. For the last month I've been trialing Frodo RC as a myth/movie etc combined. I've been really happy with the stability and progress, I've been holding my family off from forcing me to change back with promises that 'ad skipping' is coming

Thanks for the #1st class work.

Thanks a lot guys and also a big thanks to janbar for all his work!
Its really nice to have the addon added to the official xbmc repos.
Now we're doing our best to get an update out with the current bugfixes and improvements.
With the pvr repos in place it should be possible to roll it out soon.

And then indeed, 'commercial skipping' is one of the next big todos and as you might have seen,
the work is already in progress.

Cheers,
Christian
