I was wondering if anyone who uses Kodi for watching Live TV noticed that when you zap a channel from the EPG screen and watch it for a while, when you want to exit the channel and get back to the EPG, you can see the black screen for a long period of time.
The black screen can take up to 1 minute before the EPG GUI appears. It seems that this is directly affected by the amount of time you watch a live channel. If you watch it longer, the black screen is gonna take also much longer to show the EPG.
Ok, thanks. Just like I mentioned, the black screen is very short when you watch a channel for a short period of time, but very long if you watch a one tv channel (without switching or going back to EPG) for lets say 2 hours.
So test steps would actually be :
Open EPG screen
Choose channel
Watch it for 1,5 - 2h - don’t switch channels, don’t go back to EPG
Set to play one LiveTV Channel from 6:13 to 8:24 local time.
On exiting from the channel it went back to the Guide without any extra delay compared to previously.
When it did the remote ceased to operate for a short time … presumably while it was updating the Guide … maybe 30 secs or so.
