[QUOTE="Anthony Vaughan, post: 1253210, member: 153283"] Yes, what I am concerned about is that, when I cannot limit which channels will be grabbed, the size of the program table will be much larger and containing many channels I will never watch. In fact, my program table went from ~15,000 records to ~30,000 records. However, CyberSimian, I do get your point about the way that using 'store only selected channels' would duplicate processing exponentially. Therefore, I guess it is better to take the hit of having more Program records, though it would be nice to use the TV Channels list to ignore unwanted channels, though I guess it would be necessary to do a lookup for each incoming record to do a comparison on channel. I have also noticed that, since I have switched OFF PowerScheduler and WebEPG, the media machine seems to be running much faster for all other tasks. I am amazed that PowerScheduler and WebEPG would have such a dramatic effect on performance to the media machine. Tony, a convert to broadband EPG. [/QUOTE]
