[QUOTE="misterd, post: 213148, member: 19503"] I think the problem has a name: Vista. Your system specs are better than the one of my old machine. Just compare to my two systems: Old: AMD Athlon XP 3000+, 2GB RAM, Geforce 6200, Skystar2, Medion MD95700 (DVB-T/Analog), Windows XP MCE Channel switching is ~1 seconds for DVB. For analog it is ~2-3 seconds for analog, but the CPU is also at 100%. Startup is a little bit slower for both. New: Intel Core2Duo E6750, 2GB RAM, Geforce 8600GS, Medion/Creatix CTX 948 (DVB-S/T, Analog), Vista Home Premium Channel switching is >10 seconds for DVB. I haven't tested analog atm. But the tune request itself is done in 1 second. I also tested the Skystar with this htpc, but I got problems with the signal quality. I will test the MD95700 with the new htpc too and than decide if I switch back to XP. MisterD [/QUOTE]
