Which as I've pointed out before in other threads is not what I purchased this for! I was under the impression the LCD would work with ANY OS.... That was NEVER explained... I'm happy to leave the thing in the drawer until/if it gets proper support... notice weeks later we still aren't getting info in a remotely timely manner... What ever happened to the EULA etc.... its just being forgotten... much like the Pine64 will be... Hell this is worse than when the Beaglebone Black was first released

I respect your opinion; however, parts of your statement are either not true, or are unfair.

... the Pine64 was marketed as an Android platform. That cannot be stated enough. As it turns out, it is WAY more than a pile of tablet guts... but that is in fact how it started (tablet guts) !

As things progressed the gnu+linux side of things (mostly thanks to volunteers) took off to the point where linux pretty much has over-shadowed Android. If you want to use video on this device (media content) use Android, that is what it was designed for, and that is how it was marketed. 

On the other hand, this super-computer on an index card is cable of running headless servers (gnu+linux) and it is more than capable of running as a desktop workstation environment;  I have been using my debian and ubuntu images (now Gentoo) as primary workstations for most of the summer (while my mac and my notebooks have idled in the background).

I built a fully functional Android cb&dt playbox with my 7" LCD display... its fun, and it works !

My primary interest is gnu+linux.  Some of us are trying to figure out how to make the LCD work with gnu+linux; and you know what--- we're going to do it too !   ... but its going to be volunteers who do it...  Xalius now has his LCD... lennyraposo just got his LCD(s), two of them...   I have had my LCD for a few weeks but really haven't had time yet to get into it.  

If you want to use video with the PineA64 use Android. Period.   Don't wait for the EULA, nor any magic, nor anything else.  Its going to be a while, for some legal as well as technical reasons.

its ok to be critical.  But, please, try to be fair.  What I am noticing is that people made assumptions about what this device (and whatever software) were going to be capable of doing, without understanding all the technical ramifications nuances and caveats. All I'm asking is that you be fair. This PineA64 board (hardware) is incredibly flexible and highly functional.  The software needs to catch up, but oh boy is it catching up rapidly.
