I have the same frustration. It appears the Mali T864 support by Rockchip is very poor. I might try the Panfrost driver. Right now I'm using the xorg fbdev driver and the llvm meda driver. It's a little faster than the terrible Mali Blobs but it's still not fast enough for good opencv performance, b...

Here's my plex media player installer I build with DRI for vo. The hardware VPU is poorly supported and has colortable issues with H.264 MKV files so I optimized the code, made use of DRI. I built this in Armbian 18.04, the requirements should be the same. https://forum.armbian.com/topic/9034-do-you...

500GB 3D NAND NVMe PCIe M.2 SSDs are now below $90 USD. I would like to be able to boot the following from the NanoPC-T4's M.2 socket: Android 8.1 A LINUX port, Armbian, bionic, etc. Windows IoT Any suggestions? Yep. Install Armbian. The boot is off eMMC but rootfs is on nvme. it's fast. Android 8....

The method Friendly Elec used to play video with the qt video player is NOT extensible. I need support in ffmeg, gstreamer, mvp. I built Rockchip's MPP library and gstreamer plugins. What a waste of time. Video frame playback is too fast. out of sync by one second. It turns out there is a bug. Next ...

Can you please fix VPU on Ubuntu ? It does not work. The rockchip vpu library is missing. I ran an apt-update.. then all rockport specific modules were gone!


Do you have any procedure to get full functionality from the Mali T860 GPU and VPU ?


I need VPU encoder/decoder working!

Thanks

I attempted to do this. I was going to rsync from the eMMc to the NVMe, update the config file to mount the nvme as the root device and the emmc boot on /boot I can't mount the EMMc . The partition table indicate type 83 which is Linux. I tried ext2, ext3, ext4, and squashfs. No luck Do you have a p...

Before I bought the nanoPC-t4 I browsed through the FriendlyArm Android 8.1 repository NVMe support is in there. When I installed the OS on my device I looked through the device tree and did not see nvme devices. I installed FriendlyDesktop and was able to format and mount my NVMe drive. I verified ...

I agree with ayaromenok. Did you check to see you were linked to the correct libraries ? Maybe not taking full advantage of the VPU and GPU ? The very first test I did with my board is install the Friendly Desktop and compile my object tracker code for a robot I built with a TinkerBoard and Core2-RO...

It should work fine. If I was adding a battery I'd use a Battery Power monitor IC... build up a board. Dallas Semiconductor makes a few that would work. Connect the low voltage threshold signal out to one of the free gpio pins and write a user space daemon to run shutdown if the voltage drops too lo...

They are working on NVMe support! I checked Github, there is code checked in! new code, 3 weeks old. Hopefully support will be in the new update soon!

According to Wikipedia, Android does not support NVMe. Android x86 7.1 had experimental support.. but that's for the x86 platform. No support in phones. Samsung has external NVMe storage, but it's connected to the phone via USBC. I'm going to continue on with my testing. I've got a WD 8TB USB 3.0 dr...

ok. I loaded up android 8.1 on my NanoPC T4. Eflasher works great! I logged into my Google Play store accound, downloaded Plex, I couldn't download Plex Server, the store indicates it's incompatible with my device. I have a lifetime membership with them, I am going to check to see if there's a Beta ...

I will be building up my NanoPC-T4 tomorrow. If Android on all media is the same then I believe you need to delete the partion you created on your SSD. Boot up Android, Go into Android Settings and setup the additional storage. I've got a lot of projects for this board. The first one is build a repl...

Has anyone been successful in booting from NVME ? I'm building up my NanoPX-T4 tomorrow. I've got a 240GB NVME that I'd like to use. I know how to jerry rig it. Install to the eMMC, boot off eMMC, partition the NVME device similar to the EMMC device, rsync from the eMMC to the NVME device, edit the ...
