Slow Changing Channels in Guide

HI all,
Hope you're good.
I have a Humax Fox HDR T2, and moving between channels within guide is slow/delayed.
It's almost like it takes a second to decide even when I'm just moving down or up a channel. It's really frustrating, often end up choosing the wrong programme
My old Humax was so much quicker.
Any thoughts guys?
Many thanks,
xGem

Firstly you have posted in the FOXSAT (satellite) section about an issue with HDR (Terrestrial) box.

This is a known issue that first appeared in the version 3.xx software. You may be able to improve performance by deleting any entries in the recording schedule for series that have finished (bring up guide, press Yellow for schedule, scroll to end and then use Blue to delete any entries for series that have finished (they will be deleted automatically after 13 weeks but in our case that leaves quite a long list and I prefer to tidy up every week or so)). Alternatively you can install the 1.02.xx software (providing your box has the original tuner arrangement) but BBC IPlayer won't work with that software version.
