Orange PI boards support (H618 chipset)

  • Hi,

    I was looking for an affordable board to set up a simple Ambilight system for my living room (using a capture card). I’ve seen people getting this to work with the Raspberry Pi Zero 2W, but I recently remembered the existence of Orange Pi boards.

    I’ve been looking into the Orange Pi Zero 2W and Orange Pi Zero 3, both of which are based on the H618 chipset. I was wondering if anyone has managed to get them to work for Hyperion NG or HyperHDR. I’m not too concerned about the hardware capabilities (as they seem to be better than the Raspberry Pi Zero 2W), more concerned about the software side of things.

    Does anyone have experience with this? If not, what are some cheap boards (and if possible somewhat small) that might work well?

  • I'm running hyperion NG in an Orange PI Zero 2 (Chipset Allwinner H616)1GB RAM with an arduino as controller. I installed debian as O.S. and official hyperion NG repository. It works flawlessly.
