Is this when you bring up the guide while watching liveTV? (as opposed
to the schedule recordings guide).

I had a similar problem which went away when I switched to the "slim"
playback profile.

This was with an Athlon64 3700, single core, so I assumed I was taxing
the CPU, but it might have something to so with your situation.

So the question is, what playback profile are you using?

BTW - I run the optimize-db script daily, which I believe is what a lot
of folks do.
