Closing off on this saga for anyone who's been patiently waiting...
Playback is smooth now, no annoying stuttering, jitters, etc.
Noticed the last post on this thread and figured it would take a few hours less
than messing
with
ALSA without really knowing if that was the cause of my problems...

I deselected 'TV Settings -> Playback -> Enable realtime priority threads' and
a couple other
settings on the same page for good measure and suddenly mythtv became a joy.
I had already achieved high KAF with bags of on-demand 'Arthur' and 'How it
Works'. They didn't
mind the stuttering...
Now this thing is ready for prime time - I'm ready to take a reading on the
WAF...
