Hmm.  After a reboot, the transition time into Watch Recordings is now
4-5 seconds, where 1-2 seconds is in mythbackend which will eventually
run on a powerful machine.  I'm running ntpd with no problem so I
think all clocks are in sync.  I'm not using actimeo=0 or noac for
$HOME/.mythtv.

One thing I noticed is that it appears that the "pushed" state UI
change for buttons is ignored.  I would be happy if the button
background changed in some way to indicate a response to the button
press.  Maybe I just don't know how to read the theme code.  Is there
some button in some theme whose "pushed" state actually makes a
change, that I can have a look at?
