The video driver is a weak point. It's strong enough to play my SD content with VLC, but not when I enable deinterlacing or postprocessing. It's not at the top of my list to solve, because it's enough for the SD digitenne recordings I have. I think the drivers will improve in the future, so I just have to be patient. The CPU / USB / SATA is impressive, It's fast enough to record 7 SD streams from 2 different DVB-T receivers, and watch an 8th stream. But this will only work if the storage directory is on a SATA drive, the internal micro SD slot is extremely slow. An apt-get install cycle takes a very long time, even with a class 10 uSD card.
Kind regards, Cedric

How does it work so far? I've looked at Allwinner stuff before but I wasn't sure if there were stable drivers for the Mali 400 GPU. I know it can do 1080p, which makes it a good cheap htpc but only if it has stable drivers. I also wondered if it has deinterlacers as well for 1080i content. I don't know if the A20 is strong enough to deinterlace with only CPU muscle.

So you are running Linux on tablet instead android ? What version of Linux ?
There are plenty of Allwinner-based mini-pc boards out there so it's easily possible his device is one of those and not a tablet.
You are correct. Its an olimex OLinuXino A20. This is the product page: https://www.olimex.com/Products/OLinuXino/A20/A20-OLinuXino-MICRO-4GB/open-s...
It's a debian based image, as can be downloaded here: https://www.olimex.com/wiki/A20-OLinuXino-MICRO#Linux
