Hi,
I would like to play a video on a pyboard, that is, connect a display to it and a loudspeaker
and then play an MP4 or something similar.
A S070BWS45HG-DC84 with KD070HC700BT-1024600 HDMI interface is available as a display.
Is that even possible (system resources ...), what additional hardware do I need?
greetings
johup

Re: play a video
It depends how big the video is (i.e. resolution) but unfortunately almost certainly not possible with a pyboard. Ideally you need a hardware video decoder to do the video decompression.
I'm not aware of any MicroPython boards with HDMI output either.
Your best bet is probably a Raspberry Pi.

Yes......... https://github.com/boochow/micropython-raspberrypi
But also I think it would take a fair bit of work to get it to the point where you need it.

I will do that. Do you know anyone else (in the forum...) that tried this out?jimmo wrote: ↑Sat Feb 06, 2021 4:27 am

Yes it gets discussed occasionally.
The author of the port has also participated in some of the discussions: search.php?author_id=3510&sr=posts
