I'm running the latest Tvheadend client on Kodi 18.8 on my Shield TV.
I get buffering but only when watching Live TV. The player cache never seems to fill up on it's own. I get the buffering circle for a few seconds and then starts playing again before the buffer is full. If I pause until the buffer is full (and then for a few more seconds) the buffer will then stay full, only dropping by a few percent until it gets back up to a 100%. When I change channels I have to start the procedure over again. Recordings play fine with the buffer remaining full. If I start recording Live TV and then immediately watch the in-progress recording there is no buffering and the buffer stays full.
I'm using the following Advancedsettings but they seem to have no effect on the Live TV player buffer:
<advancedsettings version="1.0">
<cache>
<buffermode>1</buffermode>
<memorysize>157286400</memorysize>
<readfactor>20</readfactor>
</cache>
</advancedsettings>
Is there something else I can try?
