Hi Dagan,

Yes there is still a delay, but Craig is right, this is to buffer the
program you are watching. I don't know how much live TV you watch but I
found I was watching less and less of live TV and recording the shows I
actually wanted to watch.
I think the only live programs I would watch are live events such as the
football. Apart from this, why watch live TV? A 1 hour show is actually 40
mins long so rather than watching the show straight away, I watch a recorded
half hour show. The half hour show is actually 20 minutes long and when
that is finished I then watch the 1 hour show which is now 20 minutes into
the program. I then catch up to realtime at the end of the show having
watched an extra show and all with no ads. Not bad for only having to wait
4 seconds don't you think? :)
