Works fine for me for the last 5 years as well on SD. I have been
running 0.21 with VDPAU patches, LATM etc (running on CentOS 5.2) for
the last month very well.  I did have sound breakup issues, but an
upgrade to Alsa (and recompile) resolved and now sound is rock solid.
What is your setup, and perhaps we can assist with your problem?

If you are running 0.21 from JYA or roll-your-own VDPAU support with
0.21 then yes, you will get skipping issues with live-tv.  This is a
known fault.  In the same manner, the preview window in recorded TV pane
pauses as well with HD recorded programs (as not using VDPAU to
display).  0.21 with SD TV is rock solid - no issues - pause, skip,
rewind.  0.21 VDPAU back port was only a stop-gap measure until 0.22
arrives fully so was never touted as fully working.  I did see a patch
for 0.22 to address this issue (skipping) a couple of weeks ago.  As I
am happy with 0.21 with VDPAU I have not upgraded so could not tell you
if this resolves the issue or not.

As explained above.
