Start up and pausing troubles
Why is it taking 10 minutes for the first screen to come on and it usually goes to on demand?

That is strange and unusual behavior.
Try a Whole House Reboot:
Turn off the TV and turn it back on to see if this fixed the problem.
Don't mess with old people. The older we get, the less "Life in Prison" is a deterrent.

Is it a set-top box, and is the problem happening from a cold start.
From my own experience, going to on demand is a normal situation in a cold start.
A prolonged delay, could be caused if the set-top box is trying to connect wirelessly but no WAP and eventually tries wired. A factory reset would cure it.
Things I've observed recently in my own dealings.
