Warning: The Raspberry Pi does not have sufficient CPU power for software decoding, and MythTV does not currently support the hardware video decoder. This device will not be usable directly as a native mythfrontend until this requirement and other memory consumption concerns have been met.
The Raspberry Pi is a credit-card sized computer that plugs into your TV and a keyboard. The SoC is a Broadcom BCM2835. This contains an ARM1176JZFS, with floating point, running at 700Mhz, and a Videocore 4 GPU. The GPU is capable of BluRay quality playback, using H.264 at 40MBits/s. It has a fast 3D core accessed using the supplied OpenGL ES2.0 and OpenVG libraries.
