Im having buffering issues when trying to watch TV shows or movies from 1Channel and Project Free TV. As soon as it loads it automatically goes to "Pause" and if I hit play it will play for a few seconds and then it will stop to buffer again.
I've tried changing audio output, and all the other tips found on the forums..nothing works so far!

System config:

ATV 2 5.0 (4099) - wifi
XBMC 11.0 Latest build
Internet bandwidth: 18Mb/s

This is my advancedsettings.xml

<advancedsettings>

<network>
<cachemembuffersize>70000</cachemembuffersize>
</network>

<gui><algorithmdirtyregions>3</algorithmdirtyregions></gui>
<gui><nofliptimeout>100</nofliptimeout></gui>

</advancedsettings>


Here's a snipet of my xbmc.log file:

That buffer size seems small. I'm pretty new to XBMC, but according to http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Use...ttings.xml, it appears that the default setting is 5242880, over 70 times larger. I say appears, as an advancedsettings.xml file is not created by default, so I am implicitly assuming that the values given on the Wiki are what XBMC would use without one. That may not be true. Since apparently you are using Wi-Fi to connect to your router/cable modem I would think increasing that buffer size to say 7000000 at least would be worth a try. Just add two zeros to your current entry.
