Re: [vdr] Channel change slow

Hi

I've tried Mythtv for my home system, but found the channel change speed unbearable (i.e around 5 seconds). A look at Mythtv archives show me that people also suffer from the same problems.

So I switched to VDR, and now channel change speed is around 7-10 seconds. But on the mailing list, I cannot see anyone complaining about it. Probably I'm doing something wrong, but could'nt figure out.

Hardware/software:

• Skystar 2 (budget card)
• AMD XP 3000, 1 GB RAM
• Mandriva with 2.6.16 kernel

What are you using for the video output?

The channel change should be very fast, 0-1 seconds here with Airstar2 DVB-T and FF card.
