For the record: We are using a Pentium III. with 730Mhz (!) as standalone freevo box. For TV we use a Nova-T Dvb-t card. Our Dvb-t signal is very good, because we can use an old antenna on the roof of our house. The whole system and freevo works very good. Recording is no problem (mplayer -dumpsteam). Watching recorded streams is also no problem, even while a recording is going on. Only when a recording starts or stops, then there is some jerking for a minute. But this is not in the recorded stream! It just happens while watching. We do not use "Live Tv" because the time the Dvb-t card needs for tuning is too long, so zapping is no fun with such a card. But we got used to recording everything we might want to watch (disk space is cheap) and watch it whenever we want. This is a very convenient way!
