I guess work has continued behind the curtains - it would be great to have some more info on the progress.

My (limited) understanding of this thread and http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=156427 is:
- you've been working really hard!
- the root cause of SVTplay stutter on Raspberry Pi has been identified and is related to FFmpeg
- the problem is understood and there is a patch to fix it
- you are working to get the fix accepted into the XBMC repository (main branch)

Is this a reasonably correct understanding?

Disclaimer: admittedly I'm a newbie to R-pi and XBMC development.

It appears that the SVTplay issue on RPi has been resolved with the updated ffmpeg. You might want to checkout the ffmpeg & XBMC thread on OpenELEC regarding feedback on this particular issue.

Also interested. PBS HD streaming is useless without this fix.

I may be facing the same issue. On android, when I play a m3u8 file that leads to another m3u8 file that is just 4 second long .ts files (h264/aac), the audio plays but the video is mainly a static screen and there is buffering every few seconds.
