I only know that EPG scan did help, and did help every time... But, in the meantime I've built a new vdr/file -server, and guess what... yep, the delay is gone. I have no idea what was the real fix as I've changed almost everything (except dvb-hardware): P2-350 -> Celeron-2.5G vdr-1.3.23 -> vdr-1.3.29 linux-2.4 -> linux-2.6 dvb-20041226 -> dvb in kernel etc... But I guess there are still some people who have the same problem. Why not add an option to VDR to allow EPG scan to start right away? Teemu
