Slightly OT, but what stutter issues?  Like when you start a recording/video
and the audio starts for a moment, then picture goes black (for screen
refresh rate change to 60/24Hz) then to "Please wait..."?  Or is it when you
bring up the OSD for the video/program?  If the latter, then I assumed the
lag was pulling the program info from the database?  Thanks!
