[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1303938, member: 141969"] Response times on my system can vary, but not to the extent that you have experienced (e.g. 3 seconds to show the "Recording Schedule" panel). I ascribe my slow response times to the fact that my "C:" drive (which contains MP) is a slow Western Digital "Green" drive (5400 rpm). Every time that you transition from one MP panel to another, MP reads the XML file from disk. And for the EPG and list-type panels, MP has to read the EPG info and file list from disk too. Of course, after the first time that an XML file is read, it will probably reside in the Windows disk cache, so subsequent reads are likely to be faster. And if the "C:" drive is an SSD, response times should be faster. Another possible factor might be whether you are are using a single-seat system, or separate clients and server. The one time that I tried using my laptop as a client connecting to my HTPC server system, I was impressed by the response times, which did not seem to be noticeably longer than the single-seat case. But this is likely to depend on the speed and utilisation of your network connection. -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
