The Nova-T will pull down the DVB-T transmissions with practically no 
CPU load, easily handled by the P3 I would have thought HOWEVER your 350 
can't play back the MPEG4 related recordings that this will produce, for 
two reasons. Firstly they are not MPEG2 (which the 350 can handle) and 
secondly they are not standard definition (SD) but HD and the 350 can't 
handle HD... you would Nvidia VDPAU and I don't think you can make that 
work on your P3 motherboard.
