Weird Slowness // Client PC

[rowle1jt]

Thought at first it was the slow Core2Du machine in my bedroom. So I tossed in a a Core2Quad PC, all on gig ethernet.

Loads ok, recordings work fine. Live TV works, takes about 5 seconds to start the picture. When I am done, it then takes about 3 minutes to get back to the main screen. Tuner is released right away, picture then "freezes" for a while until it goes back to the main menu.

I tried using the UNC server as well as direct IP with no change, even disabled ipv6 on both machines.

Any one else see this?

Logs attached!

It might have to do with the DirectX runtime not successfully installed.

I can confirm that (at least on old slow hardware: Athlon64 3200 single core, crappy video card... my NMT server) without the DirectX runtime it runs like a total donkey where as running on similar spec machine but with better graphics (Athlon64 3000, ATI9600 video card... my test rig) & DirectX working it's 1000% faster.
