So just as a follow up you did restart the mythbackend service after
the backend came up. The service not the machine.
For I had to add a sleep command after loading ivtv before I started
the backend. Obviously a hack but a good one :)
I stopped my init script from even running.
`chkconfig --del mythbackend` same as `rm -f /etc/rc?.d/*mythbackend`
At the moment I have to manually start the backend upon start up
otherwise I get buffer prepause.
I may have time further investigate this later tonight once I am
finished working. I found last night when the machine near the TV that
is a backend/frontend combo(1.4G Athlon) was recording/running
comflag/and playing back a "perfect rip" dvd when I tried to watch a
recording on a remote frontend and it was seriously choppy to say the least:

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.
