Thanks - I'm fine, just been really busy.

With TiVos that have an external cable box and IR blasters a longer
delay is expected since it has to send the IR signal and then there is
lag as it buffers the new signal.

But with a Series3 or TiVo HD it should be faster.  For me a channel
change takes just shy of 2 seconds for analog and 3 seconds for
digital from pressing the Chan Up/Down to the new channel being
displayed.  That's normal, it has to tune the new channel, buffer it
to the drive, then read it, decode, and display.

Six seconds sounds a bit slow, I'm not sure what would cause that.
*Maybe* a weak signal, it might cause it to take longer to lock onto
the channel when tuning.
