Some people (and a whole lot chromebox users) refuse to read the wiki, the howto this forum post and so on. Therefre I decided, together with MattDevo, that we make the chromebox edition more failsafe ... the only change is: Don't use lanczos3 scaling when input source is > 1080p and don't use it when output resolution is > 1080p ...

Cheers fritsch, so as long as I don't use the Chromebox on my 4K TV or watch 4K content i'm good with the Wiki settings?

Yeah. When something stutters when you e.g. downscale 4k content to 1080p output or if you run the chromebox at 4k@30 even on the gui (which you should highly avoid) - then you can manually turn off Lanczos3 optimized. As the chromebox is too slow to downscale 4k@60 to 1080p60 with lanczos3 and it is also too slow to upscale 1080p24 to 4k@p24 with this method.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.
