Raspberry Pi KVMs Compared: TinyPilot and Pi-KVM v3

By the way, does Voyager 2 have its own CSI bridge, or are you planning to mount a ready-made module from Geekworm or another company next to your HAT?

All existing CSI bridges that you have used so far have two very serious problems: they do not work with audio capture and due to HDMI backpowering, your Raspberry may stop booting until you physically disconnect the cable. Backpowering is especially common when using KVM switches and some HDMI converters.

Both of these problems are solved on v3 HAT, thanks to our CSI bridge design. Are you planning to solve these problems? Just interesting :)

Voyager 2 uses the C779 bridge. I've heard of failure to boot when users chain TinyPilot to the AIMOS KVM, but I've never gotten reports of this being a problem otherwise.

There's no audio support, and audio would be a nice-to-have, but it's not my top priority at the moment.

I'd like to integrate the TC358743 onto the HAT itself, but Toshiba's got a huge lead time on orders right now.
