It does sound like network latency if you're using wireless. Try configuring your router to only use G, not B. That helped my network issues a TON.

My "network" consists of a D-Link 802.11G router connecting a 40 ft. run of cat-5 cable to my basement where the slave-backend lives. The master backend/frontend box is right next to the router.

Thanks guys, yes I changed the speed setting in mythtvsetup to 400 mbps. Now, plugreport shows that the data_rate=2 and stays there. However, it didn't seem to fix my display issues.
It's not a stuttering necessairly, more of a slow-down - like it's in slow motion for a second or 2. -it does this every 3 or 4 seconds. "normal speed, slo-mo, normal speed, slo-mo," etc, etc. The video itself doesn't break-up at all during this problem. It doesn't do it all the time, but it can happen on any channel. I see it both during liveTV viewing as well as on pre-recorded shows.
The firewire capture is happening on a slave backend box, which is an older Dell pentium 3 1gHz machine. I suppose it's possible that the machine itself is to blame (issue with PCI bus?) but I don't think the hard drive is the problem. It's a newer 7200 RPM Western Digital drive with 8 mb cache.
Any guesses? I'd love to be able to utilize Firewire capture, since it's much more reliable now thanks to those pluctl commands - but if I can't fix this video slow-mo issue than I think I'll have to ditch it.
