Another one: @trsqr: You can contact me in #xbmc-xvba or #xbmc and I can show you how to git bisect between those revisions and exactly find that commit. as those are only approx 15 commits, we are finished after max 4 compilations.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.

Got an i3 Haswell coming over the weekend to use with openelec. Does anyone have a link or advice on what settings are recommended for video and audio configuration?

We will find the culprit tonight, tsqr has started bisecting and 4 steps are left. Stay tuned.

Has anyone had either of the two following problems on the Haswell NUCs?
1.)After installing XBMCBuntu, the keyboard no longer works on startup to get into the BIOS. Using a K400.
2.)Shutting down causes an immediate restart every time.

hi guys,
Got Abel H2 case and mounted in it recently my I5 NUC.
I'm little scared though about the temperatures.
Idle is ~40C
Watching movies ~55C with 10% cpu load.
Watching Netflix over silverlight pushes temps to ~75C with HDD temps reaching almost 60C
max when pushing temp with Prime95 was 85!
Is this normal ?
when watching netflix whole case is barley touchable, so hot it is :O
I used first time paste given with case but Nuc shutdown twice on me with temp around 50, so i repasted with best artic silver I could get and it started to work without hickups but the temps are scary.
I'm afraid it will start fire on my TV closet.
Anyone with abel H2 case wants to post experience ?

Which RAM do you suggest I use in the Haswell NUC? I want it to be as fast as it can, but I don't want to waste money on overkill.
Also, can someone suggest the benefits/disadvantages of either openelec or XBMCBuntu? (I have not used either of them yet).
Thank you.
