HI, I have just built a fresh 2.1.2 installation on Win-10 64. SSD for system, SSHD for recordings, 8G RAM, i5 CPU, 2 x dual channel HDHomeRun network tuners and a NAS for storing videos and audio library.
I was impressed how little fiddling was required after the install to get some basic things hapenning. Very unlike my experience getting MP1 going well enough to satisfy my better half. The WMC theme is just the ticket.
I have a few little issues which I'll post in separate threads for clarity. This post is about switching DTV channels.
I find that starting a TV channel is very fast if there is no channel currently playing - approx 1 second startup time. However if a channel is already playing and I switch to another channel either using channel up/down or by going back to the guide and choosing another from there, it takes a very long time for the new channel to come up - maybe 30 seconds or more.
If I stop the current channel, revert to the guide and then choose the new channel it starts quickly.
Any thoughts ?
Thanks,
Steve
