So i was asuming that its the old v1 of the ps3 remote because i initialy had a new v2 remote and did not have the problem with my first chromebox.
So i went out and got a new version 2 remote. To try if the issue is eliminated.

Now i have a question regarding suspend mode... When i suspend the chromebox and then go and wake it up with the remote the remote reacts emidiatly. Even though i set standby mode on.
Isnt the remote supposed to hybernate when the chromebox is in suspend? I am scared that i have to put in new batteries like every week.
Anyone got any knowledge as to how this works?

New Model is Bluetooth for the PS3 but adds IR for a Sony TV and AVR. (Hence the Volume and Channel buttons)

you can't boot the ChromeOS recovery media with my custom/standalone firmware - it won't boot except with the stock firmware. As for booting the OpenELEC installer, what version are you using? How did you create the installation media? What exactly are you seeing on your screen? And how is the ChromeBox (physically) connected to your display?

(2015-09-12, 19:41)loki05 Wrote: Hi Matt - I at first followed the script and used the option of booting via USB (creating) the OpenElec installer. When I rebooted, it wouldn't read the USB, so I then grabbed the Disk Image of the latest Stable Release of OpenElec and mounted it on USB (first i format'd the usb via partition magic). I then slap in on the chromebox, reboot....and I do get the ESC option so I hit it...then select #2 for my USB drive....that's when I get hat weird message about linux kernal ELF something, then it just goes and stays in a black screen.

**THanks for clarifying that the CHROMEOS recovery media won't boot w/the custom/standalone firmware already in place...that makes me feel better about non hardware issue (maybe.). Appreciate any help, i feel like i'm stuck with a brick and not sure why when i've done this many times

actually, the IR portion works with multiple makes/models. Set up a CB for a friend and have the remote controlling his Samsung TV as well.
