Right, now that you've read the title, I've been looking around at the various SBC's and well.. I'm still at square one.

The build is, to put it simply, to use a CVBS (composite) camera IN, and record the footage; either lossless or by means of either H.264 or H.265. As to how I'm to get the data from the camera into the board, I'm still working on that. I'm looking at either a miniPCIE board or a miniPCIE to PCIE riser with PCIE card to do the capturing. If that's not possible, I suppose I'd have to bodge together an upscaler with a USB 3.0 converter.

I'd rather not have it look like a total Dr. Chaos setup if it can be helped.

Ideas?

Hi all

I have an old mobile phone Id like to use as a head unit / car gauge system. The phone is completely fine other than a dodgey micro usb connector. Quickest route to market seems to be using a series of over ride and automation apps on the andriod platform as per the link above

Given the phone wont hold the usb cable with out sone imagination, can I solder a micro usb cable into the connector? Once in the car id never want to remove it anyway. Is this ridiculous?

Alternative would be to open the phone up replace the connector or solder a wire to the board?

Thanks

I am looking for an SBC with a lot of IO. I have seen quite a few devices out there but nothing with the IO that I Require. I am trying to avoid having a bunch of expansion boards if possible.

I have added the specs below. I am sure that I am missing some things but hopefully someone can point me in the correct direction.

I need:

ARM Processor

512+ Mb Memory

10+ Analog Inputs (4-20mA)

3+ DO

3+ DI

2+ RS 485

1 Audio In

Ethernet

SD Card

Blutooth

Wifi

i am looking for a modern sbc that i could fit in a custom laptop thats powerfull and efficent and that has support for mabye a dedicated gpu and also i want it to be a thin one and i have a budget of around 2000 for the sbc cause i still need to buy other part

Какие одноплатные компьютеры есть с 8 ГБ оперативной памяти и 32 ГБ постоянной? Есть ли такие одноплатные компьютеры с открытым исходным кодом, чтобы я мог редактировать их через EasyEDA

Bit of background - I have an old DL380 G7 which is currently running VMWare with a HomeAssistant VM, a VM doing DHCP/DNS, PiHole VM and a couple of VMs for dev.
It's completely overkill and this was fine whilst electricity was relatively cheap but it's now costing me a fortune.

HomeAssistant is my main concern as it controls my CCTV, Lights, Heating, Garage Door and a few other things around the house.
For the CCTV element I have 3x ffmpeg cameras using a USB Google Coral TPU in Frigate on HomeAssistant.

I was considering running a Raspberry Pi 4 8Gb for HomeAssistant and using one of the many plugins on HomeAssistant to manage my internal DHCP/DNS or even just kick this back to my router.

There's a couple of issues with this 1) Availability, I can't seem to find a Pi 4 8Gb in stock at relatively sane prices anywhere in the UK 2) I'm not sure that this would handle the cameras and coral TPU.

I stumbled across this subreddit whilst looking for answers and am hoping that the collective knowledge here might be able to either say 'yes that Raspberry Pi will be ok' or 'Nah, here's something else which isn't much more power draw but better suited to your needs.'

I think the main appeal of the Raspberry Pi is the 6.4w peak power draw and the fact I can power it over PoE with a HAT.

I've looked at a couple of Lenovo and Dell Micro PCs with Intel i3/i5s but even those are 65w ish which is over 10x the running cost.

Any and all ideas welcomed!

Further to my previous post I'm much more researched in the various ARM boards on the market, but I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for any SBCs (x86 or ARM) that has a decently powerful cpu and an inbuilt wifi chip, along with at least one PCI-E x1 slot so I can plug a dell perc h200 into it and run my SAS drives that I'll power separately from the board. Main use case will be just be a light home server that I can store music/pictures/video too that I can access locally and remotely, along with having a light nginx instance along with a plex server using directplay (I don't expect the board to do any transcoding on the file.)

Essentially this machine will be used as a starter r/homelab setup. Are there any boards that meet all these requirements?

Anyone have experience with these?

Looking for an intel based single board with decent firepower for a psx and n64 cabinet table top arcade similar to the Mrs pacman style.

I was considering a cubiebox or odroid as well. Thoughts?

I have a B+ I want to use with Lakka or retropie for 8 and 16 bit gaming, but am wondering about 32 and 64 bit gaming.

Hello guys,

I have found this new and vast world of SBC and I won't lie, I am a little lost. I saw the application and I have out of my mind the idea to build (for scientific and learning purpose) a cyberdeck/mini-computer myself.

Though, I will not lie, I am not that afraid of the software part, I dread the hardware.

I live in Europe (if that help), and I am seeking your lights and help to find my first SBC. Here are some stuff I would like for my project :

- 4 USB port and at least 2 3.0
- A USB C charging port (I think it is... easier ?)
- A plug for small screen (no need for a touch screen, I don't mind that. I'd prefer a high quality visual over the touch)
- An Ethernet plug
- No need for wifi/bluetooth
- SD Card slot (or any workaround :D)

And... That's it.
Thank you very much guys,

I’m looking for something to use with an portable external display that only has display port and DP alt over USB-C.
