Hi,
I've recently switched from a MythTV setup to XBMC and so far, everything is working really well.
I have one question though. The machine I'm using has 2GB of RAM. In the past, I setup MythTV so that mPlayer would take 1GB of whatever file it was playing in its cache (most often, the whole thing). The reason I did this is because the files being accessed sit on another machine and are made available through NFS.
Is there a way to increase the cache XBMC takes to those same levels? I've maxed out the settings in the interface (Settings/System/Cache) to as high as they will go (4MB for local and 16MB for network) but the video gets lost when going above 4x-8x fast forward. I figure having more cached upfront would probably cure this. Also, NFS might be seen by the system as being local and having even less cache taken.
Since this isn't a bug, I don't know that you need all the data for my machine but here it is just in case:
Ubuntu 8.04 i686 up-to-date as of August 26th running XBMC from PPA (SVN:15111) as for the hardware, AMD Athlon X2 64 4200+ w/ 2GB of RAM and a GeForce 6600.

I'd be grateful for any help.
Thanks.
