I've installed XBMC on a basic Arch Linux setup, the hardware is AMD Phenom X3 with nVidia GT220. Media are stored an UnRAID server connected through Gbit Ethernet.
Arch is up to date, nvidia and nvidia-utils are installed, using Xfce4.
Occasionally (on average I'd say every 10 min or so) there is a pause in video playback of 1-2 seconds. The little video control OSD pops up briefly in the lower right corner.
In the log I find the following:
My audio output device is a Musical Fidelity V-DAC connected over USB and otherwise works fine. VDPAU is enabled for video playback and works well too with CPU usage averaging 1-3% on each core.
Which direction would I need to look into to solve this (quite annoying) problem?
