Starting the Live TV (if not running) takes approx. 30s. This is with the latest TV Engine v3 (TVEngine3 Snapshot: 05-31-2007 01-22h Revision 14765).
When looking at the logs, you see an awful amount of
lines in the vmr9.log file whenever the vmr9 renderer is initialized. It amounts to almost 20 seconds of the 30 second lag time. But once the live tv is running, changing channels are more normal, about 2-3 seconds. See analog_log.zip for the logfiles.
But, if I watch DVB-T channels instead of analog, you get a the 30 second pause for EVERY channel change, making it 30 seconds per change. See digital_log.zip
What's even worse is that recorded material has the same delay. Even with the TV off, the delay is present when trying to view recorded material.
I've tried enabling/disabling the FFDshow filter which I use to enhance the picture quality but it makes no difference, the lag time is the same.
I've also fiddled with the options for vmr9 (exclusive enabled/disabled) but it made no difference (except for tearing issues )
