Comment (by skd5aner <skd5aner@…>):

 Giving some feedback at the request of Jim Sitchnot (fyi - I have not
 applied any patches... I'm just running a version 0.27-fixes from a few
 days ago.  This is on linux using vdpau (if that matters).

  1. Navigating between on-screen items without scrolling;
 When I launch the guide within live tv, it actually launches pretty
 quickly, and stutters just slightly as it's loading.  I see/hear 2 quick
 stutters usually at launching the EPG.  I see 5 channels on my guide when
 it appears.  It is center focused.  If I move the focus up or down
 (without scrolling the screen), I get a slight pause(stutter) in audio and
 video playback.  The movement of the "cursor" is very slightly delayed
 after my keypress, but not too terrible - maybe .25-.35 seconds between
 the time the up button is pressed and the channel focus above is selected.
 During this time, audio/video playback stops.
 If I navigate right on a selected channel in the EPG (without scrolling to
 the next page), it responds almost immediately and does not cause any
 playback stuttering at all.  I can scroll back left to the starting
 position with the same results (no stuttering)


 2. Scrolling left/right on the same channel;
 If I scroll left/right across the page, then I will occasionally (every
 4-5 keypresses) experiences a slight stutter, but much less than going up
 or down.


 3. Scrolling up/down
 Same behavior as #1 - longer stutter/pause.  Also, the faster I
 repetitively hit up/down, the more noticable the delay in moving the focus
 and also the longer the audio/video pauses.  For example, if I hit the up
 button 8 times in a row really quickly, the overall delay in response for
 the cursor to move and for video/audio to start again may be something
 like 4 seconds.
