Hiya Tim, I just tested it here. First, noatun DOES run now, which it didn't 2 upgrades ago :)
I fired up top and then fired up the player. mp3's are using about 12% and mpg files about 30% - which is pretty damned good considering. It doesn't appear to support avi files. Box here is a potato wid 2.2.17 and latest from Ivan for kde. Box is a 450pIII with 128mb.

All I can do at this point is "killall -9 > artsd".
