Using es-pids in the demuxer is not the right way of using it. You are
better of using dvbbasebin and setting the program-numbers property
correctly.

Regarding delay, you do need to set it to READY to change channels.
Why there is a delay of 5 seconds, I am not sure as I have not tried
to look at that delay or optimise it in anyway.
