Yes, I found that in my searching.

But FishOil in his companion-post http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=170372 of which this is a derivative stresses heavily that to follow it one must already have Linux installed (in fact he deprecates anything but XBMCbuntu). So that ruled it out for me.

It's not that I've anything against Linux, so much that Linux has something against me I've tried but we don't get on, so I've resigned myself to sticking with Windows. The beauty of openELEC was (and is) that although it uses Linux it's in a version tailored to run just Kodi, without getting in the way. That would suit my needs perfectly.

But I'm being thwarted by something. Whether it's some defect in the NUC's CIR driver (which I note hasn't had any update for a long while) or some other factor I've no idea. I'm hoping someone can pinpoint it for me.
