While that's technically possible in _some_ cases, and assuming it's

For tuners without a hardware encoder, raw video/audio is the only
thing you can get from the tuner when receiving NTSC.
Nope.

NTSC is not a stream of bits. NTSC is analog. The tuner converts
the NTSC analog waveform into a raw stream of bits. This raw

An old Pentium 4 3ghz can decode HD with plenty of cpu resources to
spare so unless a person using something older than that, they've
certainly got modern cpu power.
actually even intel atom D525 is OK if decoder can be multithreaded.
As for analog streams older PCI based TV cards are still

I have a few Atom systems but they all use vdpau for decoding and I
never bothered to see how just the Atom holds up on it's own for
decoding. :)

a lot of CPU or hardware compression. Decoding either takes a lot of CPU
(or hardware decoding which AFAIK FreeBSD doesn't have). You can use

Recording ATSC takes very little CPU.

This is incorrect. ATSC is compressed before broadcast, so
you receive the data

You'll need to know if you have any NTSC (analog) stations you
care about or if everything is ATSC (digital).
