Here is an idea of how the CuBox http://www.solid-run.com/ works with livetv from NextPVR
http://youtu.be/Z7i6hJpjFao
The channels played are
1080i
720p
720p h264
480i
This is using a recent armhf update to a specialized xbmc distro called GeeXbox Overall it is pretty responsive although the microSD card writing seems slow. UI speed is probably on par with my OpenElec ION machine and better than the Pivos XS but the video playback of 720p seems to have slow scaling, 1080i is better.
Overall while it has a nice form factor sata support, a few linux distros and lots of RAM 1GB, it is a bit expensive compared to the market and GeeXbox doesn't support sub's plugin. It might end up being a MySQL engine for my many xbmc boxes when Frodo stabilizes.
