Hi, look at this Board : http://www.viaembedded.com/en/products/boards/2190/1/VAB-1000_(Pico-ITX).html?adsfrom=EU-02&adsdesc=vab-1000#

I think this would be great cause you have HDMI In & OUT Port so you can direct grab the Video !?

GPIO Pins for controlling LED Stripe are there too ...

I know : no issus at all ;-)

WOW that is really nice :) I might really try this board out, it is perfect, but I cant find where I could buy it :(

It is a nice board. I looked around for its price but couldn't find it. I guess they just launched it at Embedded World in Hanover, Germany.

amroibrahim commented 10 years ago

Stumbled across somewhere they finally seem to sell it: http://www.e-itx.com/vab-1000.html

Price for a single unit listed as $185, while prices go down towards $165 at 10 units and $155 if you aim at above 100 units.

Lets see what happens when other stores starts selling them as well!

On my end, I still haven't really figured out whether that HDMI In does support HDCP or not yet...
