Check DNS entry. On XBox, handled using Hosts entry in AdvancedSettings.xml. On Linux, use /etc/hosts file.
High CPU Usage with H264 Encoded Video There is an advanced setting which can be used to reduce the number of CPU cycles needed to decode H264 encoded video.
The <skiploopfilter> setting in advancedsettings.xml can be used to reduce the CPU utilization by reducing the quality of the output video.
Valid values are -16, 0, 8, 16, 32, 48.
The larger the number the more h264 content gets discarded in an effort to save CPU cycles.
Audio Plays Out of Sync
Check CPU utilization
I was having audio sync problems with 1080i content with LATM AAC audio. AAC is quite CPU intensive (or so I'm told) and my AMD X2 6000+ CPU wasn't quite cutting the mustard combined with the also CPU intensive H264 video content. So, unless you've got a rocketship CPU that's faster than 3.0Ghz try adding <skiploopfilter>48</skiploopfilter> to the advancedsettings.xml file in userdata.
Known Problems
Need to delete a Recording twice for it to be removed from the list.
