In NPVR, I find my Twinhan DVB-S tuners are a little slow to get started. If I just hit Live TV, I get a reassuring little "...please wait..." dialogue box that tells me the system hasn't hung, it's just getting it's act together.

On the other hand, if I go to the guide first, choose a programme to watch, and then hit "Watch", that same little "...please wait..." dialogue box does not show and I don't get that same warm fuzzy feeling.

May I suggest that NPVR shows the same dialogue box from the TV Guide while waiting to start streaming live tv that it does when launched from the Live TV menu?

I'd like something like this as well - to at least provide feedback that the remote command has been received.
More than a few times, I have hit cursor keys to see if then screen changes only to find I have changed channels and have to wait even longer.

Cosmetic at present, but nice to have.

I didnt initially have it in the tv guide, but it the message looked a big ugly overlaid on the tv guide so I removed it. I'll put it back in for the next build though.
