DPI output for LCD Orange Pi One

Hello, im starting a proyect on orange pi one, a portable photo frame with a TFT lcd, sorry if my english is bad.
Im looking for alternatives to conect my LCD display, is possible use the GPIO as DPI interface like this solution: http://blog.reasonablycorrect.com/raw-dpi-raspberry-pi/ for use cheaps 40pins display? Or the only way in OrangePi is the SPI way with a ILI9341 for example?
Thanks you for the help.

I have just succeeded connecting small and cheap SPI 2.2" LCD to a OPI One and use it as a console screen under Debian Jessie distro. It is recognized as a framebuffer device after fbtft fb_ili9340 driver is loaded, so you can output anything to it. However, I had to build my own kernel and modules (including fbtft stuff) from h3-linux-sunxi sources.
If anyone is interested, I can post a step-by-step guide.

I've made this project but I've downloaded armbian and followed this thread post; https://forum.armbian.com/index.php/topic/1080-tiny-3-lcd-on-orange-pi/

It works with photos but if you loop videos it'll play one then crashes.
