Thought I would mention, USB seems somewhat broken in 4.1.2. It makes 4.1.2 unusable for me, and might be hitting other people.

With my USB3 ext Seagate Expansion HDD connected via a USB2 hub ( since USB3 with it is not 100% reliable ), USB falls over with just about every access attempt. I've made a post about it with OpenElec too:

Just mentioning as I was forced to downgrade to 4.0.7, and I'm probably not alone.

But I was wondering if there is a way to turn ON the Chromebox from a complete cold start through WOL using a remote control app such as Yatse. I know this is definitely possible on the Intel NUC when running OpenELEC because I own one. The Yatse app turns my cell phone into a complete remote control for my NUC without the use of any other USB IR remotes, Flirk, CEC adapters or whatever else is out there. This isn't really a big deal for me since I can still put the chromebox on SUSPEND mode and I can use Yatse to turn it back on literally within one second. Which by the way, I was really impressed with the 6-7 second boot time from a cold start using this script. Thanks Matt for the great work!!!

Device: Asus Chromebox with Celeron, newest CoreBoot (updated last night) & OpenElec as standalone installation.

Everything worked just fine with old tv & other TVs in the house, but new ProCaster tv seems to have decided that Chromebox ain't sending any signal and I'm not sure what to try anymore.

I have updated Coreboot, changed HDMI-cables, ports, tried other HDMI-devices (all worked), tried booting with HDMI unplugged, hot plugging etc. Even with DisplayPort-cable connected to my computer screen and fiddling with OpenElec screen options, still no change. Not even bios loading screen, so seems like device problem, not OpenElec problem.

I got DisplayPort -> HDMI adapter coming next week to try that out but if that doesn't help, then I'm lost at what more to try.

Another Issue: when i start the box first i got no pictures on the screen. I must start the av receiver first. U got this too? I got coreboot 1.7.5.9 i thought this was already fixed?!

I'm not sure about the CIR, but I doubt it.

If your display or AVR isn't on when the ChromeBox is powered on, it won't display anything, since there's no HDMI handshake, and the CB can't determine the capabilities of the display (resolution, refresh, timing, etc). That's an issue with the Intel VGA BIOS. I could potentially tweak that, but that's uncharted territory.

Here is a post I made with my setup now etc.

the ChromeBox is a far superior XBMC-only setup compared to the FTV. It has a few idiosyncrasies, but they are pretty well documented, and my setup script makes things pretty easy. The only downsides compared to the FTV are cost and lack of built-in IR.
