Title: How To Play HD Video on Latest A20 Image.
Post by: Uzzyx21 on January 09, 2021, 03:36:36 AM
Hi,

I wanted to find out if it was possible to play HD video on the A20 micro?
If so, can you provide me with details on how to do this.

A20 chip can play videos but the answer to this question largely depends on the Linux image used and the video in question.

Can you give me more details about the video settings - especially format, resolution and bit rate?

What about the Linux image you are going to use? Does it need to be mainline?

Hello,

The video resolution is 720p, format is mp4 and the bitrate is 5mbps.

As for the image, i prefer it to be mainline. But if that is not possible then i am open to changing in order to get the video to work.
