How will it be implemented - since I have 2 cards - the patch works for 1 of my card (FireDTV) but does not work with my other card (SAA7134)...
Will this be enabled for all cards? And no way to disable? Then my SAA7134 will cease to work...

For my FireDTV it works and is a good feature - but not worth it if I need to purchase a new card for my SAA7134....

So if you could shed some light on how it is implemented?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the fix!
I've used the binaries with MP 1.1.0 release, and it does improve channel switching speeds a bit - mostly when moving from one card (dvb-t) to another (analog).

However, I was hoping this would solve a new problem I'm having since replacing my good-old PVR-150 card with HVR-1700. Unfortunately, Analog channel switching is still slow (about 5 seconds). With the old PVR-150, switching took about 2 seconds.

Does anyone here use the analog part of HVR-1700 ? Do you also get slow tunes?
