Chumby NeTV
=========================
[Chumby Wiki NeTV Page](http://wiki.chumby.com/index.php/NeTV_developer_info)
**Opening the case:** the grey rubber on the bottom peels up at the corners to
reveal 4 small philips head screws. Then the top part of the case needs to be
unsnapped from the bottom by wedging the long sides apart; be careful when
removing the top not to apply pressure on the IR extension jack.
Hardware
--------------
[netv v2 BOM](http://git.chumby.com.sg/netv_hardware/pcb/mainboard_v2/netv_v2_bom.csv)
MCU
: Bom says "Marvell 88AP166-A0-BJD2C008", chip says ``88AP1-BJD2 P1V8690.5
1004 ADP TV``. This is similar to a chip in the Microsoft Kinect.

I get this dmesg notifcation about 30 seconds after boot when the netv is
powered by USB from my Thinkpad X200s laptop (which is plugged in to wall
power):
[ 34.140267] A Device didn't response because the VBUS is low!
HDMI
------
[wikipedia article on HDMI](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hdmi)
HDMI is evil shit; you "must" pay a $0.04/device licensing fee. DisplayPort is
free but is much more complicated.
HDCP is the evil DRM shit that encrypts video data going over HDMI connections.
This protocol was already being used over DVI connections; HDMI just adds more
features.
