True it's a problem with xineliboutput, but VDR is useless for HD without any HD output device, and xineliboutput is by far the most used one. Talking about VDR HD completeness without considering it is wrong IMHO.
I'm not convinced xineliboutput is the most used output by far, or even at all. Of the VDR users I talk to, vdr-xine is the easy majority. But regardless what's used, I don't think it's fair to say VDR isn't fully ready for HD when it's the output devices that are the problem. I've only used vdr-xine myself and can say it works great in my experience.
Btw, there will always be a slight delay (which is hardware related) when tuning. However, it shouldn't be more then 1-2 seconds. I hear the mythtv guys are disgusted with their channel changing delays. ;)
