msev Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 So you guys that have more experience, what should I be looking at, when I find some code that runs on a Raspberry Pi to verify that it will also run on the Orange Pi PC? If I find some interesting code on Github for example . Regarding GPIO I think there shouldn't be any problem, since we have WiringOPI and that py20a or how its called. But what about i2c lcd's, max7219 matrix displays, other stuff? How does it differ the compatibility of boards between python and C code? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinayotte Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 The python library from https://github.com/duxingkei33/orangepi_PC_gpio_pyH3 is supporting I2C as well as SPI, along with plain GPIOs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msev Posted October 23, 2016 Author Share Posted October 23, 2016 So everything should be compatible with minor tweaking of code? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msev Posted October 25, 2016 Author Share Posted October 25, 2016 Thanks! What about regarding camera support, here its a bit lacking right since the Rpi guys have access to some proprietary binary blobs right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are at least two on those OPis which are working fine: http://forum.armbian.com/index.php/topic/1213-ov5640-camera-with-orange-pi http://forum.armbian.com/index.php/topic/996-gc2035-driver-update-320x240640x480-20-fps/ Drivers were fixed by our community members, @@lex @lvmc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
