I would like to know if NanoPi2 Fire has MFC available as in Exynos family. I am a bit confused about this S5P4418 family.
I would like to use FIMC module for the camera but the current status of kernel 3.4.39 does not provide support for MFC.
Some people say S5P4418 is an upgrade of Exynos 4412, still confused, can you clarify?
Another question is about Mali GPU, which Mali GPU is on NanoPi2 Fire? T6xx or 400/450? (i could not find any reference). Kernel say it T6XX but i find Mali 400 every time i search about it on internet.

Ok, i will rephrase my question:
a) I want to enable MFC codec in V4L2 interface for the camera, is it possible with the current kernel 3.4.39? If yes, how to enable it in menuconfig ( i just could not find a way to enable it )?
b) S5P4418 Manual implies it is mali 400MP2 and current kernel have support for mali T6XX if i want mali, have i got wrong kernel for the nanopi2 fire or it will be updated?
I would like to have this information before i get my nanopi2 fire and nanopi2-M2.

--- This is supported in Android. The VPU source code is available however we didn't integrate it into Debian system

--- Sorry we haven't studied this topic. We plan to work on this item and get more work done in GPU.

Please, release the Android kernel, so i can have a look, or better when do you expect to integrate MFC on this platform (linux)?

The Android kernel(nexell) is open source and can be downloaded from our wiki.
