An old Pentium 4 3ghz can decode HD with plenty of cpu resources to
spare so unless a person using something older than that, they've
certainly got "modern" cpu power.
actually even intel atom D525 is OK if decoder can be multithreaded.
As for analog streams older PCI based TV cards are still useful for
converting VHS tapes. realtime encoding of PAL/SECAM input is too -
trivial for todays CPU.
