You do not get a delay due to writing to the disk while watching LiveTV
since the disk buffers you wrote are still in main memory disk cache when
they are "retrieved" for viewing. The delay is deliberate to allow for the
effect that another application could have if using the system CPU
extensively while watching LiveTV.
If you are having trouble with the 360s do you also have trouble with TV on
the MCE system itself with Live or Recorded TV. If not then the problem is
caused by network congestion especially if both the MCE system and the 360
are on wireless connections since only one wireless device on the router can
actually be sending or receiving at any instance of time.

Try turning off Aero when running or recording live tv.My video does the same when I'm recording two stations at the same time,
I am having the same problem and have tried about 5 different drivers ,
it seems there is a conflict somewhere , but when Aero is off it works
flawlessly.
hope this helps

the problem? I am using 2 Xbox 360's through a Linksys BEFSR41 to watch
TV.

while watching another recorded show through another system. Killing one
of the recordings clears it up somewhat. It doesn't happen if I watching
a recording on my second drive. This would be similar to the overhead as
you would get with a raid 5 if you were recording and watching at the
same time to the same disk drive (or a program accessing it too). Are
you running a mix?
Video could stutter when the buffers are flushing to the drives while
you are also trying to read. Because of the delay in playing, I believe
the software writes and reads back the recorded video-I get a 1 second
delay from realtime display VS a TV directly on a cable...
