Hello Matt,

Is it possible to keep the chromebox alive (without disabling auto suspend) as long as it is serving a file to a different client via smb.

As it is, if the suspend time comes and you are watching something from a second client, it will still go to sleep.

This is in addition to no apparent hard drive spindown on sleep. I am testing a possible solution for the spindown problem now. The suspend has me stumped.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Sounds like an OS or Kodi issue, not really Chromebox specific. I'd start a new thread in the Linux support forum.
