I have Northwood Celeron 2,4GHz (to reduce less heat and noise) inside my PVR, so there is not much CPU power left during playbacks. When using FFWD it doesn't achieve more than approx x2 (but in 0.91 should have x2, x4, x8?). So, with x2 the playback is still smooth, but CPU can't handle x4. So, my suggestion to sub that if it detects less CPU power than needed for smooth ffwd, just use frame skipping multiples.
