Most people with this problem add a sleep to their channel changing<br>
script...Search this list for hdpvr channel script... I would guess that<br>
is your problem also..<br>

Thanks for the reply.<br>
<br>
I had read that when I got the HDPVR, so since day 1 with the HDPVR I
have had a 3 sec sleep at the end of the script. I just checked my
script and confirmed the 3.0 sec sleep at the end.<br>
<br>
Any other ideas?<br>

No sorry, I still believe it's a sleep issue.<br>
Did you try asking these questions on the Mythdora forums?<br>
