[QUOTE="htpcoz, post: 127448, member: 13987"] I just tried using Digital Watch which is another open source TV viewer developed by Nate. [url]http://nate.dynalias.net/DigitalWatch/DW2.html[/url] This app uses the BDA interface and its channel change performance is exceptional. I get 2 seconds with TS turned off, and around 4 seconds with TS turned on. This is about the performance I get from DVICO's own app. I'm still seeing channel change times of between 10 and 20 seconds (even with the TVCapture.dll patch) with MP. So I don't think the issue is due to an inherent inability of the DVICO BDA drivers to provide fast channel change. There might however be a bug/incompatibility in the operation of the drivers that specifically causes MP to have issues, that other apps aren't so sensitive to. It's open source so I'm trying to make my way through the code to see if can see the differences between the two apps. However the structure is very different to that of MP, and utilises its own Demuxer (which I guess could be part of the issue). I don't know long this will take. If one of the BDA gurus were available to look at it, it would probably be quicker, as I really don't know what I'm looking for. [/QUOTE]
