It also could have just powered down in the 'power save' mode after a few hours too. when they are off, the LED normally glows a bright red. when on it's either bright green or bright blue, depending on the box.

Also, try unplugging it and wait 10 minutes, then plug it back in. that's the box's equivilent to a 'reboot'. it resets the internal memory and should clear anything that would 'lock up' the box. remember these boxes have a few parts very similar to a small handleld computer (Intel ARM CPU, a small amount of RAM, and an operating system (OS) inside a programmable ROM chip) so locking up, or software 'bugs' are not out of the question.
