Are any of you experiencing stuttery playback of certain MPEG2 live streams? I'm using the new HDHomeRun add-on and have this on a couple of ATSC 1080i channels, while others (both 720p and 1080i) play perfectly. I have the codec licenses purchased and added to config.txt.

I suspect that the problem is not hevc, but the software decoding at all. I reproduced the same bug with 264, when hardware decoding was turned off .

Popcornmix - here's an update on the playback performance of a Pi 2 with the file I PMed you a link to :
No audio pass-through
OMX Player - Sync to Display - very occasional
OMX Player - No Sync to Display - frequent
MMAL Acceleration - Sync to Display - occasional
MMAL Acceleration - No Sync to Display - frequent
(Sync to display method, when enabled, was Resample Audio)
So Sync to display improves things, but in all cases there are still issues IMO.
Audio pass-through
All the above scenarios are close to perfect - with possibly the odd stutter. No obvious difference between them.
