I still think output devices needs to be taken into account when discussing VDR in a HD context. Without output devices, VDR is much less usable. > Btw, there will always be a slight delay (which is hardware related) > when tuning. However, it shouldn't be more then 1-2 seconds. Channel change is fast, but it is as if xine after half a second after normal playback decides that it wants a larger buffer of frames, thus freezing playback for half a second, before recovering. I am not sure if it's due to underbuffering or audio sync. -- -Tor _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
