I got a compiled image from this site: http://sparky0815.de/openelec-download-images-fat-files/

He has images for different sizes of SD cards. I used Win32 Disk Imager https://launchpad.net/win32-image-writer to write the image to the SD card.

Thanks!  Writing to the SD now.  :Thmbsup:

Working.  A couple of questions though:

I would like to change the weather temp to Fahrenheit from Celsius, cannot find anywhere to do that.

I would like to add my SMB root folder, and have it scan all subfolders for music, video and photos... D:\music\albums\a\artist folder\songs (example)

I cannot figure out where to set the time, it is incorrect.

You have no idea how much your help is appreciated!

To change between Celsius and Fahrenheit go to  Settings -> Appearance -> International  and select your location under "Region".

Not at all obvious, is it? I think this one sets the correct time zone as well.

I added my NAS SMB folder by adding a location like this: "smb://192.168.2.21/music". This lets me browse all my music in the alphabetical subdirectories.
Something similar should probably work for you, but you may want to create a public shared folder on your PC if you can't get it to work directly.
Obviously, you should also change the IP address to match your PC. I tried to use the name "NAS", which is how every other device sees it,
but I couldn't get that to work, so I just used the IP address.

Carol Haynes:
I couldn't find anywhere on mine to change the time - plug in an ethernet cable and it grabs the time from the internet.

ebs:
Right - but you have to set your location/time zone as I described above.
