Nothing is as bad as my Tivo running IR channel change signals to my digital
cable box.  Takes a couple of seconds to change the tivo, then the tivo
sends the IR signal to the box, and the digital cable box takes a couple of
seconds to change while it buffers, and then the TIVO is lagged a bit and it
takes a couple more seconds to see the final live TV signal.
