On Windows it takes less than a second.
The quickest way I can think of changing channels is setting the streams you want to remote control number buttons and bypass the TV Guide.
It is the adaptive rate switching of MINIX that makes the TV switch refresh rate. Disabling this, it takes less than 2 seconds but then I get stutter due to TV not matching the frame rate correctly.
How do you get to that setting?
RE: New plugin "iPlayer WWW" - bluezone - 2016-04-24
This is in MINIX settings menu - works flawlessly (I get zero stutter regardless of the source frame rate) but does mean TV switches modes between any menu/application and stream/video playback, causing delays.
Not to mention that my Panasonic plasma is few years old so newer TVs might do the switching faster

would it be possible to add something like 'remember my decision' so user doesn't have to click on 'Agree' every time, please?
I would love to add a checkbox to remember the setting, but I cannot find a dialog-type in Kodi which provides it.

I would also be fine with disabling the popup with additional (secret) addon config entry

It didn't quite work so smoothly for me.
Here is what happened for me.
- clean portable Kodi 16.0 installation
- install Lunatixz repo
- install PseudoTV Live, context menu included automatically
- install iplayerwww
- go to iplayerwww\Watch Live\
- BBC One - export to pseudotv live
- select channel 1
- InternetTV
- Open channel manager - Yes
- channel is BBC Parliament = WRONG!
- open PseudoTV Live
- BBC Parliament plays
- Press Enter for EPG
- NO program info!
But no epg.
I tried adding my xmltv.xml file to userdata\addon_data\script.pseudotv.live\cache\xmltv but nothing came up in the epg.
I must be missing a step or two. Can you see where?

This error occurs if there have been no streams found for this programme. It most commonly occurs if you are not in the UK. Although I would expect you to get a warning pop-up saying that the programmes are not available outside the UK, this mechanism sometimes fails.
So: Are you really located in the UK (not via VPN or Smart DNS or the likes)? If not, this is out of the support for this add-on. It is only supposed to work in the UK.
If you are in the UK, please first of all switch off autoplay in settings to see if you get any stream results.

Ok thanks. Not in the UK so must be a DNS issue. I'll dig a bit more.

It may or may not work. This is out of the control of the add-on and out of support of the add-on.
The Beeb has introduced some technology to detect VPNs lately. This may even affect users within the UK using VPNs. There was a link to an article about that a couple of pages back.

This could be the end of the world for the addon:
iPlayer could be given password protection and subscription fee under BBC reforms
