I have had a crystal HD card with the latest nightly build and r26 driver for a few months now and everything has been great. For the past week however, every time I try and stream (via SMB share on Win7 via SATA external HDD) a 720p or 1080p movie, XBMC stops in the first minute and has to buffer for 5-10 seconds, and then it continues to pause regularly every 30-90 seconds after that to buffer again, and again, and again... SUPER ANNOYING!
I have wiped my ATV (restored) and re-installed everything. Removed all content being synced from iTunes to ATV. Still get "buffering" message all the time.
Installed Ubuntu and XBMC. still get it.
Tried re-booting Win7 PC. Turned off all Win7 background processes. Replaced ethernet cable from switch to PC. Replaced cable from switch to ATV. Rebooted router/switch.
Nothing has worked so far.
Here is one relevant section of my xbmc.log file (under ubuntu 8.04 on ATV): http://pastebin.com/rugw1W5A
