Celeron 2955U Chromebox handles HD Audio and MPEG2/H264 HD video with no problems at all under OpenElec (VC-1 progressive also works fine, but there are, as with all Intel GPUs under Linux, issues with VC-1 interlaced content - which is found on some Blu-rays of TV series). You get decent deinterlacing, scaling as well, and the new development builds of OpenElec in the Linux support forums can deliver really good quality video (avoiding the banding caused in some situations by scaling to and from Full colour space from Limited colour space)
There is no hardware HEVC support in the current Chromebox, but the Celeron can software decode some 1080p HEVC stuff I believe. (Same holds for Hi10 H264 stuff)
