Difficult to say since you do not tell us your processor, but on my system, 
kdetv uses <3% (+30% X) load (Athlon 64 3000+) for half-framerate fullscreen 
video display (1280x1024) including TomsMoComp deinterlacing.

tvtime used 30% CPU + 15% X. So these values do not seem too high for a TV 
viewer.
