I've used 1.7.1 + extension patches 64 to have the livebuffer + xinelibout and was unhappy with switching time, even on the same transponder. I've went back to 1.7.0 + the same xinelibout and see big improvements in switching time. I can see "sync early" messages in VDR logs, so I assume it makes the difference. Livebuffer probably breaks the ability to sync early. > > Regards, Artem > > _______________________________________________ > vdr mailing list > vdr@linuxtv.org > http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr >
