How fast is channel change? When keying in a channel number or channel up/down, how long does it take for the actual picture to appear? thanks.

Re: Tv drive firmware updates today, faster channel change
Looks like the UK2 firmware is being rolled out more. Hope Cambridge gets it soon.

Re: Tv drive firmware updates today, faster channel change
Impressed by the new look so far. Much prefer the list layout than navigating across boxes.

Re: Tv drive firmware updates today, faster channel change
Does it just look different or does it also include bug fixes ?

Re: Tv drive firmware updates today, faster channel change
Just a different look in my limited testing so far. VOD still incomplete.

All navigation is certainly quicker, e.g. using TV Drive and Home button functions, navigating through the TV guide, etc. I can't see any difference in channel-changing speed though.
Other bug fixes, time will tell..........

Re: Tv drive firmware updates today, faster channel change
I've had a few updates, but still on the NTL EPG, plus the yellow series link button is now missing!!
Does seem quicker though, still waiting for the rebrand.
