For those of you that may not yet be aware, in addition to Kodi's Android and Apple remote apps. Kodi/Libreelec also provide access to a web interface called "Chorus2"

Example Viewing Music Albums (Access to Chorus2 is via IP of your device)

Should you wish to use Chorus from a webrowser, You need to ensure that "Allow remote control via HTTP" is enabled under Settings -> Services -> Control. I seem to recollect that username and password is required to be setup in the control settings, in order to access your device using Chorus2

I find it useful occasionally to control what is being played by Kodi whilst I am working on the PC.
(where our Music/Videos accessible by Kodi can also be played/listened to locally on PC if desired)

£23.89....including the Royal Mails handling fee of £8.

If didn't show how it was made up but I know there is an extra fee.
Wow... So £15.89 plus an £8.00 Royal Mail handling fee. I wonder why Royal Mail are delivering in the UK and not UPS!
Mr mail man (it was a bloke in dark blue shorts) has just delivered my 'fee to pay' card (Reason: There is a customs charge). Bloody taxes!

Payment of £23.89 paid via PayPal. Delivery date: Wednesday 19th ;)

I have three easy (I hope) questions this morning.

[1] I can turn off the unit with the remote, but I cannot turn it on. I remember reading that the remote needs to wake up, so I tried pushing random buttons and then the power buttons (tried them both) and nothing. What am I missing? (Of course, I probably need the steps to walk across the room to press the power button on the unit.)
[2] How can I get the menu on the top of the screen? I have accidentally gotten it throughout my goofing, but I can't recreate what I did when I want it.
[3] Related to Q2, how can I Stop music? I can use the pause/play button, but the only Stop command I have found is on the mysterious top menu that I can't locate reliably.

I added the unit to my Logitech Harmony remote today, but used the Intel setting, so the Harmony says it has no control capabilities (I have the 950 without the Hub, which I don't think has Bluetooth). I'll be curious to see if the Microsoft Kodi setting (that I saw referenced after I redid my Harmony) is any different. But first I had to crawl...I'm getting closer to getting on my own two feet!
With the first day of spring just around the corner, I figure I’ll understand my Kodi NUC sometime this summer.

Serious learning curve for an old dog like me. What I see is really cool, but simple it ain’t.
