  • In this video I show you a $20 Network Attached Storage solution made up of an Orange Pi Zero and a USB to SATA Adapter. I benchmark it and show you what a $16 SBC can do, streaming to Kodi or Jellyfin or just backing up files over Samba (SMB).

    Hey, now that they have the OrangePi Zero 3 with 4GB RAM, maybe you should revisit the project

    Just ordered an Orange Pi Zero 2 today and I plan on doing something similar.
    I already have an old PC repurposed as a NAS but I wanted something less power hungry that I could leave on 24/7 and the Orange Pi Zero 2 seemed like a nice solution.
    Seeing as your regular Pi Zero seemed to do just fine, I'm hopeful the Zero 2 will perform even better.

    I like your kind of out-of-the-box thinking. For years I've been playing with the idea to have a mobile, battery powered local media streaming for my three kids in the car. My latest prototype setup is a odroid hc1 and a mango travel router running off a power bank. Using jellyfinto serve out the files. I hope we see some more of your thinking.

      Thank you for the kind comment. Your idea sounds interesting, technically you wouldn't need a battery, you could convert your 12v cigarette lighter to whatever you wanted. I wish there was a power efficient processor that could do what we wanted. Cool idea!

    if the pi is not transcoding files can it stream x265 content normally? i tried doing my own research and now im more confused than before

    • @GrafickStudios
      @GrafickStudios  2 года назад

      Yes, it doesn't care about codec. It's just uploading data to you. The end device (that you're watching on), like your phone, computer, or firestick would need to decode the x265, which a lot do now. But that's only if you have a basic setup like me (http server or samba server), I'm not talking about Jellyfin for example (which you can disable transcoding btw) but won't run on the older Orange Pi Zero LTS I believe, haven't tested this though.

      If I remember correctly, I think it was Armbian 22.05 Bullseye. It doesn't really matter imo, I find the official images from orange pi work just as well.

      Personally I don't recommend any "pi" directly plugged into a TV, I'm not saying you can't do it. I use Amazon 4k Firesticks because the performance is excellent for streaming.
