A few weeks ago, Nodo was just an idea.

Today it has handled 7 devices, SSH sessions between PCs, a Smart TV, phones, tablets, and multiple Debian live-builds (~18GB of downloads) without issues. Power cuts, thunderstorms, real-world traffic... still running strong 💪

Buildroot was definitely the right choice 🚀

At @embeddedrecipes 26 (Yocto track) I gave a talk about kernel config fragments.

The goal was to start a discussion around a question: what should be in config fragments, and what should not?

Interesting feedback from the audience: many use fragments, but most have stopped trying to upstream them. Yet several examples suggested that at least some of those fragments could be upstreamed.

I'll be following up by sending cleaned up fragment for our effort.

I rewrote the USBridge-KVM 2.0 video pipeline to integrate Moonlight/Sunshine and achieved smooth operation.

Historically, Sunshine lacks native support for Rockchip MPP/RGA.

I delved into the Sunshine code and reworked the video pipeline. Now, the raw YUYV422 stream from the capture card is fed to the Rockchip RGA 2D engine, which converts it to NV12 in microseconds. From there, the NV12 frames are passed to the H.264 MPP (Media Process Platform) hardware encoder.

It runs on the chip via a DMA buffer. The result? Stable 1080p @ 60 FPS streaming using Moonlight's built-in FEC function to suppress connection dropouts.

A few days ago, I announced I'd be speaking at the next Embedded Meetup Toulouse on June 18th about an open source hardware board. Time to say a bit more about it !

Meet *La Manufacture du Son*, an open hardware audio streamer running mainline Linux on an Allwinner f1c200s, designed end to end with open source tools: #KiCad, #FreeCAD and #Buildroot.

All sources, schematics and docs are public:

After weeks of testing, the hardware and software behind my gateway are running great. Multiple devices, real-world traffic, long uptime, no drama 💪

The enclosure design is now finished, and the next step is bringing it to life with 3D printing 🚀

Funny enough, the name "Nodo" happened by accident... and stayed.

Another project added to the portfolio 🤩

The @embeddedrecipes conference was great! Strong talks and real conversations about #embeddedlinux and #opensource in beautiful Nice . Looking forward to next year!

Big thanks to @codethink for sponsoring the trip.
