This helps against the mp1e hangups, but after switching 10times the A/V
is out of sync. Are you experiencing the same? It seems that bad channel
receiption increases the desync. I'll fine-tune all channels if I find
the time. The count of Rinbuffer overflows increased using this option.

You mean in "player-analogtv.h" right? I'll have to play a little more
with this values before I can give a reliable answer but it seems that
increasing the NUM_BUFS to 32 increases the count of Ringbuffer
overflows...

Have a nice Sunday
