Recommended LCD in the area of 5 to 7 inches without touch screen and fairly simple linux compatibility

[brett1]

I'm looking for a fairly simple way to connect a 5-7" diagonal LCD to an i.MX8MMiniLite.  The assumption is that the DSI port is the best route to go.  I've seen some displays that take DSI input directly but I have a feeling that for a remote mounted display I won't be able to run the DSI far enough to make that a viable option.  Thus I've been considering bridges to HDMI or some sort of DVI or Displayport.  I've also looked at eDP but I think that will have the same issues with range and connector scheme...  

Any pointers and advice would be greatly appreciated.

IMX-MIPI-HDMI Product Information|NXP   This board looks to be pretty much what I am looking for and it looks like they can be bought on digikey as well IMX-MIPI-HDMI NXP USA Inc. | Development Boards, Kits, Programmers | DigiKey...  But if I was looking to implement this directly into a product are there reference design schematics of these boards somewhere?  Also I assume that the NXP provided Linux environments automagically support these codecs?
