what are the video stream properties? format, resolution, fps etc.
the via boards are famous for their very poor video performance,
but they (at least some of them) have hardware mpeg2 decoder.
(which requires the use of some non-gpl libraries...)

also, it will be connected to monitor, or tv?

so a simple photocell is far enough :)
