Ubuntu Graphics Acceleration

Thanks. May I know if the Odroid performs better with 2D graphics than the Firefly board? From the video, looks like it doesn't have any problem doing hardware decoding of videos.

i use my odroid xu4 for a variety of uses and so far video playback has been very good, no noticable stutters or anything like that, runs emulators etc pretty decent too.
now i haven't done any direct comparisons between the XU4 and firefly, on paper the firefly has a better graphics core however without the support of decent drivers the odroid XU4 will outperform it currently. this will change should the firefly get real gfx driver support in the future. still the XU4 right now should do what you want, its fast, uses the big.Little cpu core structure for optimum power usage and has usb3 x2 as well as upgradable emmc flash modules. it uses the same cpu as the Samsung galaxy note 3 (if memory serves correct)
