Dope Tech Episode 2

<<@yakovdavidovich7943 says : I really liked some of the features of my Odroid M1S... until it failed on me. During a power outage, the M1S was plugged into a shared surge suppressor with an M1, and XU4, a Mikrotik MaP, and several other devices. The M1S was the only one to fail, and no longer boots. This experience has made me leary of buying another one, if it has some weakness to spurious events -- how can I trust it to deploy in normal embedded system scenarios if it's flaky like this?>> <<@Jdvc-yd5tx says : Solid. And if you need a 3.5mm audio jack find a monitor with one and use HDMI! ⚛>> <<@prashanthb6521 says : Thank you for showing power consumption.>> <<@RO-BIN-B-O-BIN says : Ну если гнаться только за потреблением то да, возможно это лучше решение. Но то что она даже проиграть видео не может - это уже слишком сужает его применение, до печатной машинки. Иметь энерго эффективную печатную машинку, ну возможно кому то и нужно.>> <<@alexmcd378 says : Are we likely to get any future videos about using a particular SBC for a week? Or are they just getting so competent now that it's not an interesting question?>> <<@IanHodgetts says : 09:26 "The image is correctly flahsed." Hopefully, the contents of the image is correctly spelled ;-)>> <<@Lp-ze1tg says : Unfortunately, it cost the same as raspberry pi 5 with 8gb ram after shipping and taxes. Makes me struggling to decide which one to choose.>> <<@povilasstaniulis9484 says : The the major issue with many of these Rockchip SBCs is that those chips were originally meant to run Android which means there was little incentive for the chipmaker to write proper drivers to make these chips work well on desktop Linux. It is unlikely the software support for these chips will ever come anywhere close to the likes of Raspberry Pi.>> <<@FlintStone-c3s says : The OS's Linux and Android are a bit dated. The older SBC's have older OS's. But pretty low power for for the power.>> <<@martontichi8611 says : Nice vid thanks!>> <<@thewatcher5271 says : Hey, Professor! My Favorite SBC Master & Bargain Hunter As Well! No Crysis Jokes This Time. Thank You.>> <<@johncarter2383 says : I think Xubuntu would have been a better choice as it requires less graphical horse power than its sibling>> <<@BilisNegra says : Ok, no hardware acceleration, not its intended purpose and so on, but I was shocked this board can't play YouTube AT ALL! I did not expect it to be way worse than a Pi Zero at that!>> <<@Walker956 says : isnt it easier to just type terminal or system monitor in gnomes terrible file launcher thingie. gnome thinks its a phone os for some reason>> <<@heyarno says : I often wonder if the idle power usage is high, because of the single board computer, or because the included power supply is poor quality. Would you mind to add a measurement of just the power supply, with the sbc disconnected?>> <<@ZaCaptain1229 says : "I don't know why I do this, it just makes me happy" And that right there is the main reason I enjoy your videos. It doesn't feel forced, or that you "HAVE" to make these videos.>> <<@nvbnvb2240 says : O droid is not expensive but there shipping cost is quite high (like with alliexpres some vendors sell for 15 usd less but then ask 15 usd more for shipping its a form of deceit for the mentally light).>> <<@JustPlainRob says : It's a bit surprising it can't keep up with a 720p video but I guess it would potentially be useful for non-desktop uses. It just seems like a larger, more expensive Raspberry Pi Zero.>> <<@Great_White_Great_White says : This sure seems like you have to give up too much to reach that $50 price point. I'm not thoroughly impressed since there are literally hundreds of alternative choices for a similar price.>> <<@video99couk says : 09:22 "Congratulation!! The image is correctly flahsed ." Three typos in one screen.>> <<@adymode says : 9:20 "Image is correctly flahsed" - quite an alarming typo at that stage of proceedings !>> <<@francis400 says : Is that Mr. Scissors muttering in the background about the good old days and the excitement he misses from not being involved? It was great while it lasted!>> <<@user-eq2fp6jw4g says : Odroid M1 or M1S is great SBC as core for nas example. That M.2 nvme slot allows great extension for sata adapters. Thou the M1S has slow pcie-lanes. If you wanna use it as basis for nas choose M1 instead as it has faster interface.>> <<@ksenchy says : Rockchip... Run away>> <<@Remigrator says : Very good, very good>> <<@DJgregBrown says : Bar AV1 the iGPU (ARM Mali-G52 MP2) has a of full set of decode and encoders, so with the Codec's for those formats and drivers it should run video really well for a entry 2D GPU it is well packed really. (Info found of CPU monkey) it has h264, h265 HEVC (8 bit), h265 / HEVC (10 bit), VP8, VP9, VC-1, AVC and Jpeg, Decode and encode. This would be good for a CCTV system or Media TV streaming system although security low FPS is probably more suited but adding AI via a google Coral card and M.2 adaptor would be strait foreword. Although you would be force to a single chiplet though as I doubt this board will have PCI bifurcation.>> <<@kevrasx says : Can this SBC run other OS's successfully? Such as AOSP with Google features, or some other Linux for ARM? (fedora or Debian) What missing driver problems should a user expect?>> <<@JCGAPodcast says : se ve genial pero tiene un costo muy pasado con eso me compro una buena lap de segunda pero mucho mejor que esta cosa>> <<@paulmilligan3007 says : Quoting the $49 list price is almost meaningless as Hardkernel charge $22 to ship from Korea. A Pi 5 4Gb is £57.60 including tax.>> <<@donkey3077 says : Power usage when running android would have been nice. As you said android chipset drivers are better, perhaps power usage as well.>> <<@markoneil8286 says : @ExplaimingComputers were you really in a place that had a wall full of computers on the left-hand side in this video towards the end of the video?where>> <<@jjjacer says : @9:21 lol they typo'd the word flashed as flahsed>> <<@destroyer2973 says : I wish odroid would make a new Odroid Go with a Expressif ESP32-P4.>> <<@srvuk says : From an energy usage perspective it would be most useful but the price isn't necessarily that good for the actual performance shown, albeit with the caveat that it is likely targeted at industrial use, where raw power is likely a secondary priority.>> <<@anmorl says : I am look for a sbc without wifi. This SBC is greatest for me. Thank you.>> <<@mikefinn2101 says : Great introduction to a in expensive SBC nice to keep up and thanks for thinking of all of us who don't have the time to really keep up. This channel is so helpful and very professionally done very kind of you to do this many billion thanks Peter. thanks Mike>> <<@Kw1161 says : Thanks Chris and Odroid for launching another SBC wallet grabber…😂! I have a PineTab 2 which uses the RK3566 chip a find it able to run most of my Amateur radio software, so the Odroid should do the same. However, I would just spend the extra money to get the plus model including the SATA drives. Have a great week.>> <<@d.j.2146 says : quite enjoyable video Chris!>> <<@daveamies5031 says : Nice little cameo there by Mr Scissors, I like the way he snuck in like that, looks like he could teach Stanley a few tricks 👍>> <<@hermanwooster8944 says : Another great video. Now that these tiny boxes can play video at 1080P with no problems, I'm convinced that hardware is not the issue. Software is. We need a revolution in software.>> <<@marcse7en says : I love energy-efficient computing! ... My old home-built desktop hardly ever gets booted-up nowadays, as my Mini PC uses a fraction of the energy.>> <<@richardthunderbay8364 says : Another entertaining video. With regards to the topic of SBCs, I'd like to see more videos discussing the applications that these devices can be used for.>> <<@guilherme5094 says : 👍>> <<@snarfusmaximus says : 11:30 - Purple is my favourite colour. Always a treat to see it.>> <<@waynebickell1793 says : "Flahsed?" Someone at that manufacturer needs to check their spelling on the installer!>> <<@wildough says : Loving the drivel while waiting for boot to complete. Drivel on!>> <<@fmsilva11 says : Is possible to install Windows 11 for arm on m1s ?>> <<@srtcsb says : Interesting, and inexpensive enough to play around with. Thanks for another great video Chris. 😎👍>> <<@MatthewHill says : A new day with a new SBC is always a good day!>> <<@audigex says : The Odroid UK markup is such a pisstake that I struggle to justify them, even accounting for US taxes it's excessive>>
