Same problem here. I think it has more to do with OSX + MythTV than the network, but I have no idea how to fix it. That being said, I've found that disabling other network programs (ssh, fire, web browser, etc.) helps considerably.
Thanks. I don't quite understand *why* this should work, but I tried quitting all the obvious candidates (Mail, Fire etc) and MythFrontend ran for over 10 minutes (an impressive improvement). What was even more impressive was that I ran out of power after a few minutes so the Mac went to sleep and when I woke it up again it continued playing live TV as if nothing had happened!
Also, on my iBook (1.2ghz + 1g RAM), MythTV runs 60%+ and spikes much higher. Firefox sucks up a lot of CPU, so I have an especially hard time watching TV and browsing concurrently. In my experience, the OSX sheduler isn't even in the same league as the one my Linux box.
Well, IMHO, the Mac scheduler is pretty good, but that is probably because the only comparison that I have is Windows :-)
MythTV on Linux is bleeding edge. MythTV on OSX is bleeding edge of a bleeding edge. I expect it to improve over time. ;)
And speking of bleeding edge: does anyone know whether the latest CVS version of the Mac client is better in this regard?
