The n810 and n800 have USB host support, and there are a lot of USB ATSC/DVB digital tuners that would take no CPU power at all to record off, so I was thinking there is the possibility of using one as a light-weight backend. There are also some SD MPEG2 encoding TV tuners (like the PVRUSB2) that would work well.

Really I'm hoping I can port the backend to the n770 and use my old n770 as a lightweight slave backend, but I'd have to use a powered usb hub for sure with the 770.
