Forgot to order the microUSB power supply. However, I am heading to Lowyat Plaza. Where can I find a compatible PSU for the Raspberry Pi (Model B)? I'll bring my Raspberry Pi along just to confirm it fits.

anyone has circuit so i can use 9v battery for phone or pi use or just connect to the terminals and route output to the pi?

This sound stupid. But how to order from R-Pi? I'm very confused. IINM, can use M2U right? But the interface and how to doesn't really help. Anyone willing to help me to buy without extra charge? Hehe... Order price is RM 117.59 for 2 items. I think another RM20 for postage?

Got mine! using an iPhone charger to power it

Since when iphone & ipad use microUSB? Anyway, am using my Samsung charger

Hmm, minimum is 0.7A right? But my Pi won't boot up unless it's 1.0A.

No, just the HDMI cable and nothing else. And it won't boot unless I am using the iPhone 1A charger. weird

Eh? I thought the 512MB ver is made in the UK

My audio jack is black. Africa?
I think you mean the composite video connector.

any 1 can teach me how can i order it ? ~.~

My first one has light blue for the audio jack, and has Made in the UK on the board. Will see the second one when GDex delivers it. Called them today and they said they'll rearrange delivery again. Yesterday was a no-show, no idea when they'll attempt the next one though.

Added on December 4, 2012, 3:03 pmAnybody interested in building up a supercomputer out of RPi?

Pi owners could have a TT session and build one together?

Hi, anybody try using raspberry pi to watch tvb drama, rmvb player and using thunder xunlei to download the file? And also how is the midori browser compared to firefox?

Tx

Count me in, haha!
But how do we output our video? Need to bring display to Starbucks during TT, haha!

Seems the latest batch sold by element14 are made in China .. the three units just arrived today are all made in China and not UK as of the previous batches.

I wondered too.
Big question is what to run on the parallel supercomputer after you hook it up?

I'm going to buy one today. Planning to get the Belkin USB 4-Port Powered Desktop Hub.
More expensive but it's powered and it's Belkin. It comes with a power cable btw.

any idea where can i find cheap powered usb hubs?
those china powered usb hubs doesnt come with adapter

Lol, I'm a poor kid only mate. I've got no idea how to design my own USB hub.
And my soldering skills are pretty bad to say the least.
But you could link me/help me design, I'll really appreciate it and will buy you a cuppa!
Yes, RPi is powerful enough for playing AVI-contained movies encoded in Xvid @ FHD 1080p resolution.
However, when you access the menu/OSD/on-screen display while the FHD 1080p (AVI/Xvid) movie is being played, it (movie) will stutter every 5 seconds.

The reason I downscale to HD-Ready 720p since my source is FHD 1080p is because to play FHD 1080p it's quite processor intensive towards the RPi, causing video stuttering and I hate video stuttering while accessing OSD (to seek/fast forward/rewind/subtitles/audio video settings, etc).

This is a drawback because it's only RM111 of hardware. These are some acceptable trade-offs as expected. Furthermore, I don't notice the difference between FHD 1080p and HD-Ready 720p. When your RPi is running @ HD-Ready 720p @ 60Hz, everything is smooth as butter!

I don't have any remote but you may check RPi verified peripherals here:

As for XBMC skin, I'll definitely recommend xTV SAF. Light and makes me feel at home (ATV).
Yes, the source is FHD 1080p. I'm not sure how the descaling process works but all I did was choose:
Settings, System, Video, Output resolution @ 1280X720p @ 60Hz instead of default 1920X1080p @ 60Hz.
Hope I've helped mate. This is a resolution kick-down and not so much of a video file descale.
Sorry for the confusion mate!
Okies okies, awesome mate! I hate driving to Jln. Pasar, the traffic jam is horrendous and parking is a bit*h to find.
