my first point is that tvtime is a nice tv application, that uses xv. my second is that tvtime does not work with dvb-t adapters that sent a mpeg2 stream to the tv application - which most dvb-t adapters do. if you think your load is too high, try opengl, sdl, xvmc as 'video driver' instead of xshm.
