Hello,

I went to the preorder page but noticed that the store frontend, including where one is supposed to enter credit card information, is not using HTTPS. Can you please fix this? I would love to preorder one, but not I'm willing to give you my credit card in plaintext. It also makes me a bit nervous about how you are storing and managing this information on the backend.


As another user suggested, Paypal support would certainly help to alleviate my fears here.

Backer Per-Jarle Sæther would like to know:

"Do you have an API for controlling GPIO pins from Android apps? 

I would like to make my own apps for controlling the GPIO pins. Would be awesome if this could be possible from java apps without the need for native coding."

Can anyone offer any help?

Hi there,

Is it possible to power Pine64 via GPIO headers?
Best,

What is the Euler

Hi All,

I am not able to find any clear information if Pine64+ supports virtualization. The followings are my questions

-- Does Allwinner A64 SOC support Arm virtualization extensions?
    * How about its MMU, it support stage 2 translations?
    * Is there any further document for our reference?
-- Does Pine64+2G support secure EL2 boot for hypervisor?
    * We need to enable KVM and Xen or other hypervisor support on Pine64, but from the sunxi wiki, it seems
       the current u-boot enters the kernel in the secure(?) EL1 exception level. 
       This currently denies any virtualization (KVM) to be used.

When (only if) will PayPal be available as payment method in the store at http://pine64.com/product ?

What is the size (in mm) of mounting screws for the board?

I want to know if it is possible to build an Arcade Cabinet with the Pine64? I would like to build one with at least two players and run an emulator with a bunch of games on it and still have the ability to put coins in to get a game started. I am no programmer but I can definitely build stuff. I already made my own arcade stick for my ps4. Now I just want to go bigger. Thanks

Does the pine A64+ come with the os pre installed. Or on an sd card. Like how would you get linux or android onto the thing. is there a specific mini monitor I should use for it. if not does it have vga capabilities.

I've been looking for a new CCTV camera for use at the curling rink since the ones we have now don't produce a sharp enough image to display details in some in-ice advertising, so I've been looking at a replacement camera with a better image quality. I found an action camera that can remote stream to an android device, but then that's 6 cameras x $200, plus the router, and the android device at the TV. 

The biggest problem is that the cameras are about 150 feet away from the monitors (so HDMI is out), and it needs to be split to 2 monitors per camera (1 downstairs, 1 upstairs)


What I was wondering is, could I connect a camera to one of these boards and use that as the camera, then connect that board via Cat6 to a board right beside the monitor, then have that one output to the TV via HDMI? Or is there a better solution? These cameras are about 20 feet up, so they'd have to either be constantly on, or automatically turn on when given power and send the video signal automatically. Currently we just have to turn the TV on and we've got video (BNC Camera), and I would like to keep it that simple since some people here aren't as tech savvy.
