Best board for HD video recording and encryption?

HI forum! Just had a project I am starting on and wanted to get your opinion of which board I should start with. I am not sure the Pi2 can deliver on what I am trying to do.

Essentially I am looking for a board that can record 1080p HD video at 30fps and then encrypt that video. While I am not sure about specifics regarding that workflow (second question below) I am just looking for something with the form factor of the pi2 that can allow me to do the above.

A little more on what I want to try to achieve: I’m trying to record stuff at the highest quality- right now I guess 1080p at 30fps. I want to write/record these videos, maybe to an encrypted USB stick/drive or to something like Dropbox.

I’m more or less looking for an easy user experience. Im making this for my dad who’s not the most tech savvy…so i need to take into account the fact that he is confused often

  1. Any ideas on which SBC can definitely perform this functionality without any hiccups?

  2. In regards to writing and recording- does the sbc record onto its own disk before moving it to the encrypted drive like a usb or into the cloud (dropbox)? Or does it write into the encypted volume?

Once again…the most important thing is nice and easy automation of this.

Thanks for your help, thoughts, ideas, suggestions. It feels like a tall order as I have to outline so much of this out in order to make it work well for my dad. I feel a bit overwhelmed but just going step by step.

Thanks
