I would like to comment that I have these exact same problems with my two mvpmc's. I also have a frontend on my backend server that experiences no issue. I recently added another frontend on my Apple iMac and it also has no issue. The problems seem to be a problem with the mvpmc's only. If I press pause on for a few seconds, things seem to straighten out for a while. It seems like a buffer limitation or something.
