There is still going to be a delay in between selecting "Watch TV" and
actually seeing video on-screen, due to the fact that the encoder needs
to encode video before the decoder has anything to display.
Yes, this is a design decision. No, there's no way to reduce this
delay. Yes, you can change "Watch TV" to actually spawn an external
application, like xawtv.
