SoC will easily beat your suggestion in energy efficiency, low cost, footprint, etc. > Other platforms are cool but I'm afraid you can have problems with drivers You can have problems with drivers in general, but everything can work fine too. The possibility of a driver problem, that may be fixed, is no excuse to run away from alternatives. For example, the Raspberry Pi is crippled in many ways and has all kinds of bugs that need to be worked out.. yet people are still successfully using it as a fairly stable XBMC/media player. _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
