In complex software ecosystems—such as automotive infotainment, IoT gateways, or telecommunication stacks—developers use Meson to manage hybrid codebases. The "Mbox Meson Ref" pattern dictates how modern build scripts reference these specialized communication or storage blocks.
If your feature is optional (e.g., experimental), you can use Meson options.
Change these strings from "Mbox" or "MesonRef" to your desired name (e.g., "VeroV", "MyMediaBox"). mbox meson ref

If you run custom operating systems like CoreELEC, LibreELEC, or generic Linux builds on single-board computers (such as an Odroid N2+), your AVR might read the default vendor fallback data. You can manually rewrite this label inside the Device Tree Blob ( .img ) without compiling a brand-new kernel. Change these strings from "Mbox" or "MesonRef" to
If you are seeing this on your TV, it is . It is simply your television identifying the internal "name" of the connected streaming box. If the message persists or blocks the view, it can often be disabled in the TV's HDMI-CEC or Input Notification settings, or by adjusting the display settings on the media box itself.

Sometimes, firmware updates reset the EDID name to this default. 3. Is It a Problem?
