I didnt really find anything conclusive last night. C4HD recordings start
within 2 seconds, including the ones recorded before the EIT rescan.

I'm on mythbuntu 12.04.1 x64 LTS for my BE - multipurpose server, with
3.2.0-32 kernel, and 'mythbackend --version' of v0.26.0-55-g09ac5b2
(latest; Dec 05)
FE's are on mythbuntu 12.10, but since i do not have one on at the moment
I'm not sure what they are running, something very recent though.

This is what i have knowingly done over the last 2 weeks (in no particular
order):

- delete all sources (hardware tuners, video sources etc; i forget the
exact terminology). ensures i'm starting from a clean point with channel
data.
- update all machines to 0.26.
- re-add tuners, video sources, and rescan for channels.
- re-run the channel sorting sql script
- recreated a corrupt recording rule. It was specific to a program, not a
channel but that resulted in playback issues. simply deleting and re-adding
that rule fixed it.

as I previously said, i did this due to EIT stop working, but i am no
longer having issues starting or skipping through C4 HD content.
Sorry there isn't anything more conclusive, but might be worth a try!
