Very good!!! Especially the bit about my Phillips TV. Now, the interesting
part. I have VDR V1.3.6. It changes FASTER than the TV. Noticably faster.
There does seem to be a delay when I switch from BBC to ITV channels, but
BBC1 to BBC2 is as near instantaneous as one could reasonably expect. 

Build is Mandrake 10, Linux 2.6.3-4MDK, with DVB kernel that came with Linux
distro (so its easily not the latest). I have a TT-DVB-T premium card
(rev1.3) and a Nebula DigiTV DVB-T card.
