So here is my thing.
I notice that when I go to start live tv, so I click on the My TV menu item.
It takes 20-30 seconds for tv to actually start. I mean its real slow. At least thats my gut telling me this.
It could be the norm, as this is the first time I have had a tv server running.
I have a p4 HP running xp sp3 in teh basement. Its got a gig of ram and 2.5 TB of disk and yes lots and lots of fans.
anyway, perhaps this is the norm I have no idea. IF thats slow, the any suggestions on how to speed it up would be hlpful. Once its starts, I must confess, it rocks. Mind you I do find the TV service a bit unforgiving. If I crash my htpc, I see tht my TV server may need to be restarted to clean up what ever damage may have occured. But this isn't bothering me half as much as the slow slow start.
Thoughts, idea would be appreciated.
