Skip ahead causes hang during playback

Make sure you aren't having problems with network packet loss. This can cause the very issues you're experiencing. Most network activity can completely handle and correct small amounts of packet loss without the user ever being the wiser but real-time streaming video from the HDHR can't, so it's quite possible the only symptom you'd experience would be slightly corrupted video.

Detecting the problem and some ideas for correcting it are covered well in the Silicon Dust FAQ here. This was causing me a great deal of frustration for well over a year before I ran the tests mentioned in the FAQ. Since everything else was working fine I had no idea my network was experiencing a small % of packet loss. In the end my solution was simply to force my nic to operate at 100Mbit instead of gigabit speeds.

Good luck figuring out the source of your trouble.

Thanks! I will definitely run these tests. This seems more likely to me to be the issue than the audio decoder.
