I have been using a RPi as a chartplotter (OpenPlotter & OpenCPN) with a standard hdmi monitor for a few years. I would now like to use a Pi5 for entertainment and monitoring batteries, charging, solar etc. My questions are:
1 Would headless work with movies; ie would BT be fast enough or does it need a hard connection? If yes, then what would be a good tablet to use? Is there one that would work as a monitor via hdmi
2 There is a Pi extension/bit of software that says it can connect to BT from Renogy batteries and Victron equipment. Once installed, how do I connect the OpenPlotter displays?
3 Is there a minimum memory for this sort of use?
Thanks
