With my HR20-100, I noticed that when changing channels between ch80 and ch82 it takes about 2s, but between 390 and 392 it's 3s.

I assume this is due to the difference in MPEG2 and MPEG4 decoding of the stream.

Just wondered if anyone else has noticed this?

I only noticed it as I was watching the golf this past weekend on chs 390 and 392 (newly turned on MPEG4). I was checking PQ between ch 80 and ch 390 and 82 with 392. I was frustrated in that when changing the channel that it took so long. Then did the ch 80 to 82 timing and then 390 to 392 test.

Obviously, the unit needs to acquire the channel (select satellite and TP) and then decode it. I wonder if a software upgrade could help channel changing?
