Title:
  Skip-ahead hangs frontend

Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV:
  Expired

Bug description:
  9.10 with latest Mythbuntu MythTV 0.22 updates as of today. Frontend
  on Intel-based netbook (N270 Atom + Intel IGP), backend over wireless
  network with NFS mounts for recordings.

  Using 'Skip-ahead' sometimes works, but more normally it causes the
  frontend to completely lock up, so that I can't exit using the
  keyboard, can't 'Close' it from the taskbar menu, and have to manually
  kill it from the command line.

  The frontend log is full of stuff along the lines of:

  NVP(0), Prebuffer wait timed out 6160 times.
  NVP(0), Error: Timed out waiting for prebuffering too long. Exiting...
  NVP(0), Error: Video frame buffering failed too many times.

  Repeated every two seconds.

  Which, you know, is fine in a way because I don't expect the wireless
  connection to be too reliable; I can live with a few glitches and
  dropped frames. However, this locks up the entire frontend
  permanently, so that it completely stops interacting with the user.
  That part is a major problem... there must be a better way of dealing
  with timeouts.
