When I'm watching TV in Preview mode and then hit pause to switch to buffered mode, the screen goes dark for several seconds before coming back with the paused image and red play bar at the top. This seems rather unpolished.
Perhaps the program could grab a still image at the moment the pause button is pressed, and display that until the buffering system is ready to take over? I realize the final buffered paused image will be different frame than the still, so the picture will jump a bit as the play bar comes up. But I think that would be far preferrable to a blank screen.
