Win Xbox One media remote with Intel NUC
#1
Question 
i have a Intel® NUC D34010WYKH that ive been using since it was released, love the hardware, have Kodi 15.1 installed over Windows 8.1 as it also manages me media organizing and downloading.
I came into possession of an Xbox One Media remote:

that has the best feel and build quality of all the remotes ive owned, including many off-brand Chinese keyboard air-remotes and lower end Harmony ones. but for the life of me, i can't get the built in IR on the NUC to recognize commands sent by the remote.

i have tried EventGhost and WinLIRC and Intelliremote and any combination of the above but nothing ever clicks. i have seen posts related to this issue with sometimes no follow-up (like this) and other times success (on OpenElec for instance here). But even after messaging some of these users directly, i have gotten no further to getting this to work. For reference, the Intel NUC has a Nuvotron CIR that has drivers installed and up to date, and shows no errors in device manager.

does anyone have experience with these two devices and how to get them to work better together?

assume you have the remote type set to RC6 in the BIOS? If not, that might help

yup, tried all three bios options (generic remote, rc6 remote and xbox remote), though it seems that this remote uses NEC and not RC6 so that might be the issue. the threads regarding getting it working on OpenELEC state that there is a IR NEC protocol handler that needs to be initialized, though i am unsure if this would be possible on Windows or how to get it done exactly.

any more help is appreciated
