Why does my local playback of DVR recording end up a choppy mess on the PC yet stream to iPad like butter?

Dear Plex support/community.

I have a slight issue. When I record TV shows using the Hauppage Duel HD freeview dongle and try to play it back on my PC (Plex Server) it’s just a mess of skipping and bufferering making the viewing unplayable (Live TV works a treat). However when I stream that recording to the iPad, playback is smooth and accurate.

I am running the latest version of the Plex server and Client software.
My PC has a GTX 750Ti with the latest version of Nvidia Drivers
All other playback of content plays flawlessly (Only DVR content is broken on PC)

Any help/ideas would be much appreciated.

Thankyou.

Simon.
