[QUOTE="automationRulez, post: 780735, member: 114502"] Update for others who might read this later: Watching live TV is really smooth. CPU usage while watching recorded TV is less than 10%. Most of the trouble I encountered was when watching recorded TV. When fast forwarding a recorded TV show, at 2x and 4x everything is fine, but things get weird at 8x. It's probably a configuration issue I haven't figured out yet. Also, rewinding a recorded TV show seems to freeze the display. There seems to be a half second delay when switching channels and I had MP crash once on me (I installed watchdog, so I have the logs). System config: Gigabyte z68ma-d2h-b3 i3-2105 8GB DDR3 1066 HVR-2200 Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit power supply: 400W I also have an HVR-900H USB TV Tuner that I plan to plug in to see if I can add another tuner to the mix.
