I've followed this howto to install XBMC on my AMD E-350 and it works very well, except for one thing: roughly once every 20 minutes, live TV from my MythTV box slows to a complete crawl - about one frame per second. Once this happens, I have to stop and restart the channel to regain a normal frame rate.
If I bring up the XBMC info display after this happens, the "error" column rapidly counts up to about 4000 %. Then, the error resets to 0% and the next frame is shown. Screenshot: http://nullinfinity.org/xbmc_myth.jpg
This only happens with files from the MythTV box, never with files in the regular XBMC library. It doesn't seem to happen when I use the MythTV frontend on my laptop either, nor did it happen with my old XBMC installation. If anyone has any idea what the problem could be, it'd be much appreciated.
This is with the latest mesa and xbmc versions from the PPAs in this thread, and kernel 3.13.1-031301-generic.
