I don't see your problem. The computional intensive encoding happens in
the backend, and that is separate from the frontend anyways, it can run
on one of the fast servers (which then have to have a tv card, which
they have to anyways - streaming unencoded video over the network won't
be fun). The client with the frontend then only decodes. The video will
stream from the backend to the frontend as compressed video, that's how
mythtv is architectured.
