After waiting for two years for an update to the Rock64 Pi sized board have decided to switch over to using the RockPi4 computer instead.
This device will also run KODI in 4K HD mode with CEC.
This one has the RTC battery and also the add of using .M2 drive. It is the size of an RPi.
It will be running Ubuntu 18.X and be using 4 Gb of RAM plus an .M2 drive or an eMMC drive to run:
Homeseer 3 Lite, Home Assistant and Node Red - Omni Plugin and firewall-router.
The object here is to fit this device inside of the OP2 can, Aux OP2 can or Leviton 42" panel. For hardware serial / USB devices will be taking this to ethernet.
Current HS3 Pro computer is using a Digi USB 8 port Edgeport and Digi USB hub plus ethernet connections.
Unrelating to OP but relating to KODI media players here...
Relating to Kodi boxes and NAS this is what I have tested and working today sort of OK with HD 4K Ubuntu. (Staying away from KODI in Windows or Android).
BTW and relating to the Amazon Alexa devices here and using Python (HA - MQTT) have turned these devices in to media players a bit like Squeezebox players except that they will do TTS and Alexa commands. IE: Alarm status, OP2 zone alerts, Weather et al sans VR such that I can manage the Alexa devices / Homeseer devices via VR or just sent commands.
Here is an interaction image of what I am doing today.
The OP2 panel talks to HS3, Smartthings Hub and HA which all interact with Alexa.
Homeseer talks UPB, X10, ZWave, Zigbee and WiFi (MQTT). OP2 talks UPB, X10, Zigbee, ZWave and now MQTT.
The HS3 HSTouch and OmniTouch Pro screens talk MS SAPI TTS. One Alexa Dot is connected to zoned audio mixing with HS3 speaker.
IE: you can use the automation to speak the weather via HS3 or Alexa.
