LiveTV buffer not large enough

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Play live TV channel
2. Shows buffering then live TV starts

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected:  continuous playback of that live tv channel until instructed to
stop.

Actual:  live TV plays for a few seconds and then stops.  repeated attempts
do the same thing each time.  hit "I" key to bring up info, see that seek
bar goes to then end and playback stops.

If you instead pause playback as soon as it starts for just a few seconds,
you can then allow playback to continue with no problems.  I assume from
seeing the numbers tick that you're refreshing periodically to get the new
file length.  I think either increasing the buffer time or refreshing more
often would take care of the issue.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Mythbox Beta 3 SVN1062
Mythbackend TRUNK 0.22 - SVN 20490

XBMC 9.04 on OSX 10.5.6

So XBMC behaves in all sorts of different ways once fed a file to play. Once I 
hand
over the file to XBMC, it is out of MythBox's hands. Possible causes:

1. You're playing over a link that can't stream the file fast enough (wifi?)
2. Your chosen protocol to mount network shares may not have optimum settings (I
recommend NFS)

Thoughts?
