I'm fairly sure you can get slightly more than 30fps out of it, though.  The 
guy that wrote the ivtv-fb driver tested stuff with mythtv outputting 
directly to the OSD, without going through the linux-fb layer, and said it 
was acceptible...  'Course, the machine I have my -350 in now doesn't have 
the horsepower to resize/convert to rgb in software, so I can't test that out 
=)
