The PVR350 is hardware accelerated via ivtv, so that's unlikely to use 
more than 5% cpu.

I would blame the HD stuff.  Make sure that it is running in ATA 
whatever mode.  I have in my /etc/sysconfig/harddisks

EXTRA_PARAMS=-X udma5
MULTIPLE_IO=16
 EIDE_32BIT=1

You might need to use a different udma level for your needs.  Also, if 
the nvidia TV out is in use regularly, make sure that you're using the 
nvidia.com driver.
