I'm sure it won't matter the source of that video, but is that live TV or video direct from HDD / NAS you've tested?
I'm surprised the chromebox is higher spec than the 2820. So a better all around choice then? HD audio passthrough, 1080p full bluray ISOs etc all work no issue via openelec?
from the HDD, I don't have a PVR setup currently, but that doesn't matter in terms of playback. If you do a CPU/GPU comparison between the BayTrail N2830 and Haswell 2955U, you'll see the only advantage of the former is lower TDP / ability to run without a fan; otherwise the 2955U blows it away. The ChromeBox wiki (link in my sig) provides a good overview of capabilities/limitations.
