Raspberry Pi 400 teardown and review

Hey, I'm not morsch, just wanted to thank you for testing and posting the results :)

Too bad, but probably to be expected. The RasPi wasn't really meant for tasks like this. Still, actually interesting that it would suffice in a pinch if you just needed to just stream some video, even if the quality isn't really good.

No problem, hopefully it helps answer some peoples questions about the kind of performance to expect.

I imagine Jitsi isn't taking advantage of hardware encoding capability (It's using VP8/Opus in my testing) but it gives an idea of what's currently possible.

That said, as I mostly work on native code for the communications work I do, I imagine the Pi would do a much better job with a native client and the right codecs.

You can use native code to stream to Jitsi using UV4L[1]. At least I think you could, at some point. It's a bit odd, certainly not as plug and play as using the browser.
