I was seeing buffer prepause when attempting live tv playback. It would
pause if mythbackend was started using
/etc/init.d/mythbackend init script. It looks as though there's an issue
when started via 'su' .
so I created an alias in ~/.bashrc
alias mythbackend='mythbackend -v channel,record,playback --daemon
--logfile /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log --pidfile
/var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.pid'
Then start as mythuser.
The buffer prepause occured if I ran the init script as root or myth user.
I get this very same problem sometimes on my epia box when I try to
autostart mythbackend
after a reboot.
I kill the mythbackend process and restart manually ... if I recall
"/etc/init.d/mythbackend stop"
followed by "/etc/init.d/mythbackend start".
I don't know the exact cause ... but the restart has never failed to
solve the problem.
