    Buffering is so bad that I changed the value from 2% to 10% but then playback gets stuck and locks up computer.
    Anyone have any suggestions?

    If you have not already done so try unchecking the setting shown in the screenshot below. For a long while I got stutter on several different Live TV urls until disabling the MPUrlSourceSplitter in favour of LAV became available with this setting.

    This has solved the buffer issue for YouTube but has the video stutter for TMDb in Trailers plugin.

    To the best of my knowledge that setting is only applied to the use of the MPUrlSourceSplitter when using the Online Videos plugin.
    Are you saying the problem with the Trailers plugin has happened since changing that setting or has it always been there, the Trailers problem that is?

    just did a small test and youtube's protection hasn't changed.
    And seeing that switching to LAV solved it, the issue should be something else...
    About IMDB, are you refering to the IMDB site in onlinevideos or indeed the Trailers plugin?

    Trailers uses OnlineVideos to view YouTube trailers.
    The buffer issue is fixed for both YouTube and TMDb in Trailers when disabling MPUrlSourceSplitter in OnlineVideos.
    The video jitters only occurs for YouTube and TMDb in Trailers when I disable MPUrlSourceSplitter in OnlineVideos.

    I agree.
    Buffer fixed with that change yes. It is something else to do with the playback as the buffer is 100%.
    I meant TMDb, not IMDB. Not sure but when I changed the MPUrlSourceSplitter setting in OnlineVideos the buffer for TBDb was fixed as well.

    MP has adjustable audio delay. I don't know whether this works for all video formats, but it certainly works for TS files, and may work for MP4 files. There is a slider that allows you to adjust the audio delay while playing a video. Press the INFO button on the remote control to display the OSD, select the "Audio" icon, and then...

    I've setup my HDHomeRun in MP1 as (4) IPTV cards rather than Atsc. I can see the (4) Atsc cards, but just have them disabled. I did it this way so I didn't have to edit the channel names every time tested a new TV-server install. Anyway, it works. I don't know if this would get you past the BDA driver issue. I'll provide more...
