[QUOTE="fluff, post: 79056, member: 13871"] Hi One thing I think MP would really need is a progress bar like the green spinning circle that MCE uses to inform the user that the program is loading/preparing for usage of the request. If you press "My TV", the screen goes black for a couple of seconds to initiate TS and so on. But for less experienced user (like my parents) they will keep pressing "OK" since the computer is obvious not responding according to them. This "My TV" issue is not that hard to learn that it takes a couple of seconds. But there are many delays every here and there and it is pretty annoying to keep track if the remote actually got the signal to the computer or if MP is working. The delays between channels is something that many people are not used to. Instead of swapping 3 channels due to delay. It would be more clear if it said "changing channel" or just a progress bar. This sort of feature would make MP more friendly to use and even though the delays would be the same it would seem like MP is responding faster and more interactive. Thanks Fluff [/QUOTE]
