Running TVHeadend on a server using a FireDTV and a PVR-150 and also experience image stutter after about 5 minutes (audio starts to stutter later). This happens on both tuners (Digital and Analog), with and without vdpau.
Stopping (x) and reconnecting to the channel seems to reset it, as does switching channels.
Switching the frequency on the server using "ivtv-tune -f 768" does not solve the problem and it continues to stutter on the other channel/frequency. The frequency change takes longer than normal, probably the buffer that causes that.
Please let me know which logs you want.
