Live-AC3, when you comment out some lines in transfer.c and dvbosd.c to turn off the buffer reserve :

Sorry for complaining, but with these three lines commented, the code does exactly the same as the original code (it even compiles to the same object code). Maybe this mail is missing the patched part in transfer.c? Or am I missing something? :-)
no, there is nothing wrong.
Try it, it works. Channel switching to an AC3-channel becomes much faster.
I found this in vdrportal: http://www.vdrportal.de/board/thread.php?threadid=34456&sid= But it is important to edit not only transfer.c, but also dvbosd.c !
