I assume the firmware images will be slightly different, but I can't find any yet.
When (roughly) will they be made available?

Will I be able to connect the One and the Lite to a crt tv with rca connectors? I see they only come with hdmi.
Most people in Latin America have CRT TV, not flat screen hdmi tv. Too expensive.

Warik, thanks for the information. I didn't know that. I am new to this board thing computer. Not an "electronic engineer". I suppose you have to solder or welt the 3 hole in the back of the board (bottton of picture), and then put a conector and then the rca cables, or something like that. But without a tutorial or video I will not adventure to do it. But I will not mind to buy a solder kit and learn if it is not hard and looks ok.. I'm a linux advocate planning to recommend in the future a cheap computer board for educational purpose.. Regards.

Not the holes, but the contact pad labeled "TV OUT".
The yellow RCA cable should has two cables inside, the (+) is to be soldered to the "TV OUT", and the (-) is soldered to "GND".
I don't know which color is which.

GungSukman thanks to clarify. The picture of the board doesn't say much. I think that for the time being I will start with an Orange PI that has a composite video output already in place. Maybe later on I will try something more "advanced" . Regards.

Is it possible to connect the IR receiver to the GPIO ports such as Raspberry?
The modules found gpio-ir-recv but when loaded (modprobe gpio-ir-recv) does not appear in /dev and lircd not working.
