Choppy HDHomeRun

[simtre]

Hi, I have an old HDHomeRun and a well-spec'ed Windows box.  When I view TV on using HDHomeRun's app it is just fine. When I view it or record it in NextPVR it is choppy as.  Australia so mostly MPEG-2 and 4.   I have tried lots of things.  Any Ideas?

You didn't supply logs, so we can only guess...

A couple of questions/guesses: What model HDHR is it? What is the source for the HDHR (i.e. over the air antenna, cable)? While the HDHR is tuned to one of the channels, what is it showing for the average signal strength? In NextPVR, which device type for the HDHR did you select? Generally, the HDHR version will be the best since it uses a TCP (lossless) connection from the HDHR to the server rather than an UDP connection which can have dropped packets due to network conditions.
