[QUOTE="scoop, post: 52685, member: 10498"] Hi, Depends on how you watch TV and have configured things. For example, timeshifting adds an extra 2 seconds to channel changes here. With TS off, the zapping is 2 seconds (which is the OSD zap delay). So, if I configure the OSD zap delay to 0 seconds and don't use timeshifting, I've got instant channel changes. With MP, you can start watching TV with TS off and switch it on as soon as you want to by pressing pause. A nice compromise between fast zapping and being able to take off to the toilet when neccessary... ;) BTW, I prefer to have the OSD zap delay higher than 0 (preferrably 2 seconds). This way I can do zapping based on the guide info shown in the OSD, instead of having MP actually switching the channel. Kind regards, Michel [/QUOTE]
