When embedded SoCs are _much_ more likely to have AES accelerators, why are you looking to ChaCha20 for encrypting video?

RSIC-V based are probably the most widely available microcontrollers / dev boards, but they unfortunately don't have AES accelerators. On the other hand, ChaCha20 (or ChaCha12) run great on them.
