Hi I almost always record the wrong show after resuming from standby. It is because the IR-blaster changes to a wrong channel but only when I'm using MP. My sat box only recieves part of the numbers sent.

Everything is Ok if I change the channels from the EPG and the myTV and also if using the config from Hauppauge. So the blaster is set correct.

I think it is because resuming from standby, starting the recording machinery and changing channels all at the same time is too much, so the numbers are not sent from MP quickly enough. Or maybe at a wrong pacing.

Therefore, I would be happy if one of the developers could make it possible to set a delay, before it tries to change channels? It would be optimal if this only aply after resuming. So it should resume MP, wait a little time, change to the correct channel and then start the recording machinery.

Another possiblity would be the possibility to blast the codes two times with a pause in between?

    I would like that delay to apply to locking onto the TV tuners as well, re init tuner option has never worked for me within powerscheduler.

    Would also like to see this configurable, ie 5 10 15 20 seconds delay after resume.

    Yes probably a delay in connection with the tuner might work also. I think that the most important part is to split the recording/connection to the tuner/sending IRblaster keys apart.
