Re: [Debconf-video] Info for using the Opsis board + HDMI2USB for TwinPact replacement

That BeagleBone Black is also for outputting things via the HDMI2USB -
the second input. Non-critical, but nice for:
* Putting up X minutes remaining warnings on the confidence monitor
* Displaying now and next information on the projector between talks
* Playing a stream, broadcast from another room.
If there was a way of slinging the odd JPEG (or MJPEG stream, for the
room-repeat use-case) at the HDMI2USB, then the BBB could be dropped entirely.

I think we're going to want to mount them inside a bigger case, with
repeated (sacrificial) HDMI ports on the outside. Carl also intends to
do this.
Andy intends to mount the whole set in a case:
* Opsis
* Opsis VGA expansion (when available)
* Beaglebone Black
* Switch
In that case, the mini ITX case may not be necessary.
