quick update, i had to go back to using the 640x480 camera as the casio camera belongs to chris. i look forward to making an EOMA68 camcorder. ironically it'll need a full processor actually inside the Housing (probably something like an allwinner R8) as it needs to be able to do full HD video encode *on-board*. not enough bandwidth to get videos out of USB2 otherwise.

You're not talking about me, are you? Because I don't remember lending you a camera of any kind.

nono - chris waid.
Oh, whoops. I somehow think I've missed mention of him. That said, I confess that I also don't read every single message...
Aren’t some of the hardware encoders flexible enough to encode into VP9/8 or heck Theora?
wavpack for best free lossless compression and opus for when you want to max storage space.
It would be really fantastic if the camera could encode into free formats. Also avoids royalty fees for everybody too :)

yyep. turns out that google provides VP8 and VP9 hard macros "for free" to any serious fabless semiconductor designer that's going to production.

I've been searching on: http://rhombus-tech.net/community_ideas/laptop_15in/pcbs/
(with a slight formatting fix, may need double check...)
And I couldn't find what I wanted to know: are there GPIO (or anything else that can do) available on the laptop pcbs ?
I ask in the context of the keyboard ligthing LED idea we discussed earlier.
That would make some other laptop tinkering / modification ideas viable...

you want http://hands.com/~lkcl/eoma/laptop_15in then check pcb1 directory for a schematic PDF (just generated yesterday).

there's very very little available, i had to use pretty much all of them. there's a 6-pin header which is for I2C and UART - that's all. that's the *only* spare pins. J1 in the above schematic.

you could hang an I2C GPIO expander off the 6-pin port, but for god's sake don't try to power the LEDs from the VREFTTL coming off that same pin-header: take power from J4 instead.
