Allwinner F133
Bouffalo Lab BL808
GreenWaves GAP8
(no native video hw on this one I think? targeted at IoT edge computing)
Surely there are more (or will be :-). Problem is usually availability of suitable boards, documentation, software tools, or some combination thereof.
And these are often one-off parts. At some point it goes away, and then what to do? As opposed to being sort-of-standard platform offered by multipe vendors that one could code software ecosystem against (like for eg. Raspberry Pi).
You could of course design your own hardware. But then you quickly get into FPGA territory, design-your-own-computer project, lower clock rates, higher cost, etc. Cheap, small, highly integrated SoC much preferred here.
