</div>Ah yeah, had forgot all about the solid state drives. Yeah, this is for<br>
live tv only. While<br>
the rest of the family never watches live tv, the in-laws are on their<br>
way for the holidays<br>
and I have some lagging latency issues when watching live tv that I<br>
thought maybe faster<br>
ringbuf access might fix.<br>
<br>
Thanks for the reply.<br>
