Hello, I have been following this project and absolutely love what you have been doing.

I've been looking into DIY cheap server design and was comparing Pine64 against my other options as a good candidate.
The variations of the card all do a good job of catering to well-rounded software development (e.g. mobile, video, and touch).

I was wondering if you ever considered a card variation oriented towards low graphics, high cpu/memory usage?
2-4GB RAM, Ethernet, expansions, and basic video (My server box doesn't need 4K video   ). Things for doing renderings, crunching calculations, running dedicated servers.

I know these generally are made to cater towards wide audiences, but it's just a thought I've been turning in my head as someone who has worked with server stacks.
Or is this a case where I should simply use the Pine64+2GB and just not utilize the extra features?

Many Thanks,
Jigen

Since the stretch goal has been passed, the board circuit for a power switch will be there, what options will there be for using or not using it?

Has screenshots from AIDA64 (hardware info app for Android).

Is there any thread on this forum that is dedicated to the progress of Cluster attempt?  I didn't find any matches when I just searched.  My interest in the "Pine 64" is for Lubuntu (Linux) for rendering videos.

Hi, 

I find somehow hard to follow new posts over the "view new posts" on the forum, mainly because it marks a lot of posts as read without me having actually read them... (i don't really know why)

Is there any possibility that you allow tapatalk to be used on this forum? It's a lot easier and fast to follow and answer posts on my mobile or tablet.

I ask because I understand there are no costs to you... if I am wrong and it needs some kind payment by the forum owners then forget about it.

Thanks in advance!

What is the probability that Pine 64 will satisfy Google's Brillo IoT hardware compatibility?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Brillo

Google is developing Brillo as the IoT OS and ecosystem to do home automation, smart cities, and everything IoT.  

At the moment, Google has approved the Brillo compatibility of Intel Edison or Qualcomm Dragonboard 410c development board.

Android based Brillo arives-with-hacker-sbc-support
http://linuxgizmos.com/android-based-bri...c-support/

"Brillo can be configured to run within resources as small as 128MB of flash and 32MB of RAM"
Brillo supports "ARM, Intel, and MIPS hacker SBCs."

It would appear that Pine 64 should be compatible with Brillo, but I'm not sure if there is any other considerations I'm missing.

Getting the $89 setup with the touchscreen. I'm hoping for an enclosure that will turn this into a one piece tablet, with room of course for the battery upgrade. I expect it to be a bulky tablet but that's fine.

I use at this time a Raspberry Pi with HifiBerry-DAC and Kodi as music library/player. Due to my audio setup (vintage analogue amp) I cannot use digital audio. The analogue audio output via phone jack on the raspberry pi was very shitty and didn't work for movies at all. So I had to add the HifiBerry. I'm very content with that choice.

May question is now: How good will the audio quality be via the analogue phone jack on the Pine A64? And will there be any hassle with movie playback like on the raspberry pi? And if you'd advice a "pine-dac", when can I expect it to be available?

Thank you!

Hi!
Can I playback on this hardware full hd movie at 24p frame rate?

Hi all,

Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but can't find the info here or on Kickstarter.

I just pledged for the $29 tier (on KS) because I don't care about remote controls on the $59 tier.. however I'd like pretty much all the other things that come with the $59 - like the power supply, enclosure, etc.

The Kickstarter campaign says "You can add add-ons such as wifi, screen, case, a la carte, thanks to Backerkit after your pledge." but I'd like to check the specifics..

Will all the things listed on Kickstarter pledges be available to add on/upgrade from BackerKit - like, with the $29 tier, could I add the enclosure, power supply, SDCard with Android, for a similar or same cost as the $59 tier, or a bit less because it doesn't have the remote?

When adding things via BackerKit, will additional shipping rates be added?
