No issue, but there was one on special for 20% off I believe just for today (probably no one would be able to reply to this in time to decide). I have an Intel NUC Kit DN2820FYKH and that can't play the youtube 1080p test videos smoothly on linux. So I had decided not to buy the BRIX GB-BACE-3000 because I assume it wouldn't play smoothly either on linux and I don't want to buy windows.
If anyone could confirm that is does work I could buy one today, otherwise I'll leave it and look for something else in the future. If anyone has a brix GB-BACE-3000 or another system with the Celeron N3000 cpu running linux, could you possibly go to youtube.com and look for '1080p test' and see if it drops frames?
I have tested several less powerful (and older) similar 'bricks' with zero issues. All 15 unbranded boxes directly imported from some unknown supplier in China via the Alibaba portal, all equipped with small 128GB cheap Chinese SSDs and the cheapest Kingston 1*4GB DDR3L RAM. 1080P video issues (local MKV file or Youtube): ZERO As such I can confidently tell you that: a) Your assumptions are completely wrong. B) There's something very wrong with your installed Ubuntu* -and/or- with the browser you're using (addons, perhaps?) -and/or- with your Youtube account settings** * Unless, of course, it's somehow defective with some rare and weird hardware problem. Unlikely because you 'd most likely be experiencing other issues as well. ** HTML5 ONLY!!! Do NOT use the old Flash, especially with Firefox.
Thanks for the info. The NUC DN2820FYKH I had in another room used for mostly old movie viewing. But I brought it in and connected it to the internet and found playing a youtube video in firefox in Lubuntu (all updated) (not logged into youtube so with default settings) it was dropping a lot of frames when running this video in 1080p that made it unwatchable (at that resolution). I also saw this video review And he says it drops frames (this is another model of course but similar I think it's a similar speed). It's not too late to get the Gigabyte BRIX GB-BACE-3000 on special if it could watch 1080p youtube videos (and other streaming videos) without dropping any frames or slowdowns with any linux distro (I don't mind which one).
Update: Ok well I ordered one (BRIX GB-BACE-3000) so hope it works ok with 1080p youtube using ubuntu and firefox. Otherwise I can just watch 720p but it would be slightly disappointing if I had to. Is there any reason Ubuntu would be better at firefox youtube playback than Lubuntu? Lubuntu didn't detect any additional drivers for the gpu with my intel nuc DN2820FYKH so I hope it can with this Brix.:/ Last edited by ultragamer2; February 4th, 2016 at 03:44 PM. Ok I got the Gigabyte BRIX GB-BACE-3000. It can play 1080p youtube videos in Chromium at about 70% - 80% cpu usage but it maxes out the cpu and jumps a lot in firefox. Update: with software rendering it drops frames.
It's a shame because I wanted to use the firefox adblocker, I hope there is one in chromium, I just want to block the video ads from coming up, any ideas? Or I could try another browser if anyone has a good suggestion? Theres probably no use trying to fix the firefox problem because I wouldn't have the expertise to even guess what could be wrong with firefox in this system. But it's the exact same problem with my intel nuc DN2820FYKH, can't watch 1080p youtube videos with firefox. I'm using Lubuntu on both computers 8gb of ram in the brix, 4gb in the nuc.

I installed some Intel HD drivers with a utility you can get online then I followed an instruction to override software rendering in Chromium flags settings. After that I think it is made just fast enough to watch nearly all of the few 1080p test videos I watched in chromium.
The cpu usage fluctuates between about 75% to 100%, getting near or reaching 100% in the most demanding bits of demanding hd 1080p test videos. In this video it appears to get to 100% usage with the mountain flyover scene, so for general watching it seems just fast enough, maybe just not quite fast enough to never drop any frames but I'll have to do some more tests to be sure. Before without the hardware acceleration it couldn't handle the water bubbles and ripples at all, now it can. So it's much much better than before when 1080p was unwatchable. If anyone is running either of these brixs or nucs in windows, could you say what the cpu usage gets to in the mountain flyover in that video. If it does drop the occasional frame I kind of wish I got one that was just 10% faster.
