Edit: It looks like I can recover my original chromeOS update...perhaps that would contain the info?
I'm not sure what you're referring to by "original ChromeOS update"

Symptom - During playback, the video freezes while the audio continues to play. Key presses are non-responsive and the chromebox needs to be powered off/rebooted to regain normal function.
Obviously disabling hardware accelerated playback prevents the symptoms however higher bitrate content playback is choppy, particularly when syncing to a 24p display. I haven't seen much chatting about this issue and haven't been able to find any solutions in the thread. If there isn't one, is this on the XBMC Dev team's radar?
Note: Running standalone openelec v4.0.6. The content is being pulled (over SMB) from a NAS on a 1Gb link. Same config/content works fine on an older Zotac zbox w/ celeron CPU and nvidia GPU.

this is a known/documented Intel driver bug, and not a firmware issue.

Can anyone suggest how to backup the flash drive. Can I use
Code:dd if=/dev/sdb of=chrome-backup.img
that's a backup of your original ChromeOS install (on the internal HDD) and does not contain a backup of your stock firmware unless you created on manually.
my script simply reads the current firmware (off the chip) and writes it to a file called 'stock-firmware.rom' on the first partition of the selected/inserted USB drive
