WIZ.BIN Size

Hello,

My WIZ.BIN file is now about 42mb, which seems large compared to what it was a couple of months ago at around 19mb.

I've noticed my menus have been kind of sluggish, and I'm concerned that the WIZ.BIN may be becoming corrupt.

I hate to start over with my WIZ.bin. I do backup my system regularly, but unfortunately my backups only go back a few weeks before I noticed this problem.

I have a backup from a year ago, but hate to loose all the watched show information.


Thanks for any advice

That's not normal. Try setting the limited_carney_init setting to true to see if that speeds things up. (Search the forums to get the exact property name.)
