4K Video acceleration within Chromium works only in Jammy / Noble Gnome or KDE Neon desktop images with kernel 6.1.y

If you cannot boot Armbian from SD card, you need to erase SPI bootloader from stock OS
If you are having a Orange Pi 5B variant, replace fdtfile=rockchip/rk3588s-orangepi-5.dtb in /boot/armbianEnv.txt with fdtfile=rockchip/rk3588s-orangepi-5b.dtb

Enable AP6275P Wireless Module on Orange Pi 5:

Enable orangepi-5-ap6275p overlay from Hardware menu of armbian-config and reboot.

In order to run Kodi (sudo apt install kodi) with HW acceleration, you have to run kodi under gbm or wayland.

v25.8.2 vendor and current Gnome variant tested
Images here are for 5B, for model 5A can be found here.
Some eMMC devices are broken on 5A
PD is broken for the 5B model (background) on most revisions that are in the wild and is causing boot loop. Workaround is to use a stupid / fixed 5-24 volts USB-C power supply.
Installation to NVME or USB is done via standard armbian install utility (sudo armbian-install). Make sure to generate partitions and format them before start.
