Rpi 4
Rpi 4
I would be interested to hear from anyone who has one of these and a 3B who can do a direct Air Player performance comparison. I dismissed the 3B because it’s just not powerful enough for what I needed. I hope the Pi 4 is a good step up.

Re: Rpi 4
Hi,
Interesting stuff.
From what I have read, the GPU is about 50% faster then the latest Pi 3. That is certainly interesting for running Air Panel.
Also, it seems that a new OS has been released, so don't expect our Pi 3 image to run on the Pi 4.
I will have to look into updating the image.
I also have to see if I can find a way to support both HDMI ports.

Re: Rpi 4
Hi everyone,
I guess some AP users tried the RP4 and I'm also pretty curious if the new Pi is capable of boosting up the fpm rate to a higher level then 18-20.
Or does AP need a yet to come update to run on a RP4?
I guess the dev team from Sim Innovations is testing it intensely to make sure this combination will work out great, too.
I'll keep my fingers crossed
Kind regards

Re: Rpi 4
Yes i’d Also be interested to hear anything on the Rpi 4 when anyone gets round to doing some comparison testing with the 3B.

Re: Rpi 4
Hi,
Couple of weeks ago, I managed to make a build for the Raspberry pi 4.
The frame rate seemed to be increased by about 40%, nothing to spectacular though.
From a technical standpoint, quite a bit has changed between the pi 3 and pi 4. It will take me a while to get a new image that will support both.
Also, I don't think I will support both HDMI ports in the first version just yet.

Re: Rpi 4
Thank you for taking a deeper look into this!
40% is definitely someting, from my point of view.
A RPi coming closer to 25 or even more is a nice gain in a sim.
Yeah, the Pi4 is brand new so patience is advised.
I guess your customers will be more happy with a stable version than one that was released in a hurry.
Thanks for your reply!

Re: Rpi 4
Hi Corjan,
I know you are up to your eyes, but any news on an R-Pi 4 image release soon??
I want to use the Pi 4 to drive the professional EFD1000 instrument an try and make it completely standalone.
I read somewhere there was to be a revision update for the EFD1000 too, or have I got that wrong??
BR PD.

Re: Rpi 4
There's a new version since July.
RPi 4 image comes this month I think. The problem is that it might have to be a separate image for the 4, but rather not...
