Eh, just like a second delay while relaying to channel (regular TV people get it a second ahead) otherwise, that's it.
The cool thing about digital is that you get the nice digital sound too! And if you have a 5.1 setup, you can actually get a source of surround sound quite spiffy - I was mighty impressed w/ the output that my DirecTV setup gave me - both visually and sound-ish-ick-ly (?) <|~ What is the sound equivalent of visually?!
