Hey guys,
Kind of a weird one...
I have no problems with video playback when watching things inside of XBMCbuntu.
However, I set up Advanced Launcher (per this guide) to launch a full-screen Chromium browser window so I can watch flash-based streaming sites (ESPN3, SPEED2, etc) that don't have great plugin support in XBMC. Everything works fluidly, except that after about 10 minutes my receiver loses its HDMI connection with the HTPC. At first, I only noticed this happening while watching full-screen video, and I found that if I hit ESC to exit the full-screen video mode, the HDMI connection was immediately re-established.
Then, I left the Chromium window open on a random website, with no video playing, and walked away. About 10 minutes later, it lost its HDMI connection again. So, I'm assuming this has nothing to do with video playback and is instead some general setting somewhere in LXDE.
Anyone have any ideas as to what might be causing it?
