I’ve been searching for NUCs for days. now I found this one: ASUS Mini PC NUC14RVH | 'NUC14 Pro' |
Core Ultra 5 125H | RAM: 16GB | SSD: 512GB
Does it have the right HDMI interface? It features 2 × HDMI 2.1 (TMDS). This would be a used purchase with no option for a return.

Hi, I have one more general question: does LibreELEC-x86-DV run entirely from a USB stick without using the internal SSD, so that I can keep Windows running on the mini PC for other purposes?

If so, I would likely choose an i3 or i5 processor instead of the N100, which would be too slow for Windows.

or is LibreELEC-x86-DV just perfectly optimized for the N100?

thank you!

would this mini pc be a good choice:

GEEKOM Air12 Lite, Intel N100 4 Kerne, max. 3,4 GHz, 8 GB RAM, 256 GB SSD, HDMI + DP-Dual-Screen-Display
or would 4GB of RAM be enough? or maybe 16GB be better ?

Hi! I’m new here and came across this project while looking for a way to play Dolby Vision Profile 7 FEL on a PC-based setup.

I haven’t bought any hardware yet and would appreciate a recommendation before I do.

my setup / use case:

TV: LG OLED77CX9LA
sources: UHD Blu-ray remuxes in MKV, Profile 7 FEL (single-track, BL+EL+RPU); MP4 dual track possible too
goal: DV Standard (TV-led) output with full FEL reconstruction, no frame drops

what I’ve gathered so far:

Intel 8th gen and newer are listed as supported. But 8th/9th gen iGPUs (UHD 620/630) only output HDMI 1.4 natively and depend on an LSPCon chip for HDMI 2.0. Does DV signaling work reliably through LSPCon at all?
N100/N150 are listed with occasional frame drops on some FEL files.
the reference hardware seems to be an i7-11390H / Iris Xe.

my questions:

is an 11th gen Iris Xe (e.g. i5-1135G7) a safe minimum for FEL, or is 12th/13th gen noticeably better?
has anyone successfully used an 8th/9th gen machine with LSPCon for DV output, or should I avoid those entirely?
are there specific mini PC models that users have already confirmed working (ideally with an LG OLED)?
is dual-channel RAM required to get stable FEL playback on Iris Xe?

Thanks in advance for any advice!
