Do you get the same CPU load with mplayer?
I get 55-60% CPU load when watching TV with mplayer on a
700 MHz Celeron (my Xbox), with 6 Mbit/s 720x576 video.
Motion is perfectly smooth except when a lot of disk
activity happens at the same time.

Make sure that hardware scaling is used, or that the screen
is in 720x576 mode (720x480 for NTSC). Otherwise software
scaling is used to produce square pixels. With mplayer on
a slow CPU, use -vo xv or something equivalent, not -vo x11.
