As the title says, I am now the happy owner of an Orange Pi PC. I spent the 2 weeks it was on China Post reading these forums.  My first project is to replace the Pentium 4 Media PC (Lubuntu - Kodi) that I have with the OPI-PC.  I have read threads about the lack of Linux video drivers so I will try Android first. I am a little confused about Orange Pi models since some IMGs work on the OPI-PC but only one USB works. I have also seen threads where Ethernet plays peek-a-boo but some users have solved that with what SD card they use and how they burn it. I found a thread to get the IR receiver working and have an IR remote with a USB receiver so that would be nice but not a deal breaker.  I was hoping to use an HDMI to DVI adapter so I could test and configure on my workbench but every thread I found says it doesn't work. I would also like to have HDMI-CEC and use my TV remote but haven't found ANY threads about that. Lastly, I also found a dozen or so links to download IMG files but a lot of them were broken so working links in your reply would be greatly appreciated.  

Here is my personal with list.

MUST HAVE:
  • Ethernet

REALLY REALLY WANT:
  • All 3 USB
  • Play Store
  • IR

WOULD LIKE:
  • HDMI to DVI
  • HDMI-CEC

PS: Moderators, you may want to move this to the Oreating Systems section if you think it belongs there.

I have tried every image I can find. The Loboris posted by darqoq, Zidoo, Beelink from this thread and 2 versions of sun8iw7p1. So far HDMI-CEC has not worked but that could be my cheap Insignia TV which uses INLink or the cheap HDMI cable.  I have not got all USB working on any and on Loboris' the only working USB was the OTG.

So having done my own research I am ready to answer my own question. To burn it an boot it and use it quick I recommend Beelink. Zidoo needs to be hacked. sun8iw7p1 boots up in Chinese, isn't rooted, and is full of bloatware. I may get Loboris' working some day when I have time to tinker.
