gollark: Your CPU is clearly apioformically outdated.
gollark: It has a built-in JPEG encoder, since apparently that was cheaper than putting a USB 3 interface in.
gollark: I do have a random Chinese USB device which works as an HDMI input too.
gollark: TV boards have it, but that's quite specialized.
gollark: Anyway, it also has overengineered video codecs and a good GPU.
