[QUOTE="2010, post: 980971, member: 128076"] I won't bore you with my HTPC background but its fair to say I've used most of the windows offerings (XBMC, MCE/DVBLink, MP, NexPVR) and the most persistent issue has been slow channel changing. NextPVR is the fastest tv server but thanks to DJBlu's Sky plugin & Titan, I prefer Mediaportal but the channel changing is too slow (5/6 seconds upwards) but recently XBMC has made a breakthrough with channel changing times and it now takes approx 1 second to change channels using MP TVServer! I always assumed TVServer was the culprit for the slow channel changes but obviously XBMC proves that is not the case, so the question is, why is Mediaportal significantly slower at channel changing with its own TVServer then a third party client (using exact same hardware)? The thread below has details regarding the improvements with XBMC [url]http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=150887&page=4[/url] Mark [/QUOTE]
